香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Alumni gathered in October for a 60th anniversary celebration.

 Sixty years is worth celebrating 鈥 that鈥檚 what brought out over 100 alumni, staff and 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 supporters last month, as 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 marked its 60th anniversary and the impact of tens of thousands of graduates since post-secondary came to the region. 

The College鈥檚 story began in 1963, when the B.C. Vocational Institute was first established. Since that time more than 60,000 graduates have passed through 香港六合彩开奖结果查询鈥檚 campuses in Salmon Arm, Vernon, Penticton and Kelowna, and sites in Revelstoke and Oliver. 香港六合彩开奖结果查询鈥檚 alumni have made huge impacts on communities from one end of the Okanagan Valley to the other, and beyond that - around the world.

Speaking at the event, 2021 alum Erum Ahmad spoke about the importance of education and the impact it made on her life, having earned her bachelor鈥檚 degree in business administration at 香港六合彩开奖结果查询. A first-generation Canadian-Pakistani, Erum now runs her own jewelry store among her entrepreneurial ventures.

鈥淚've always said that education is key to a brighter future and 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 helped me curate my skills for this purpose,鈥 she said. 鈥淚 loved how the small class sizes allowed for in-depth learning and communication. My professors are still a part of my network and I continue to ask them for advice regularly.鈥

Hosted by the 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Alumni Association (香港六合彩开奖结果查询AA), the event last month brought together alumni from a wide field of industries, from Indigenous youth workers to Red Seal carpenters and chefs to entrepreneurs across a broad spectrum of business.

鈥淭hrough 60 years, 香港六合彩开奖结果查询鈥檚 alumni have been making a profound impact on our institution and the broader community,鈥 said 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 President Neil Fassina. 鈥淥ur alumni are a vital thread in the fabric of 香港六合彩开奖结果查询鈥檚 history and they continue to shape our future. Their commitment to our values and their accomplishments serves as a testament to the quality of an 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 education.鈥

To mark its 60th anniversary the College produced a booklet featuring a collection of alumni stories that will also be shared on 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 social media channels and the alumni website. You can view the booklet here:
