Okanagan College is looking to add new programs, new student support, and help address pressures tied to growth, with its new budget.
The college’s board has passed a 112 million dollar budget, that will add 13 new instructional positions in a variety of programs.
There’s also funding for a new two-year diploma course in collision repair, and for additional students in the sustainable construction management technology and animation programs.
“There will also be an additional health and safety co-ordinator hired and new information security officer for the college’s information technology department. Two more custodial positions will be added to keep pace with the growth of the College’s physical plant including the new trades building in Vernon, which is expected to open toward the end of the summer,” says a college media release.
