The Transformative Economic Impact Of The Nova Scotia Community College
Manage episode 329771361 series 2903830
It is hard to overestimate the impact and importance of the contribution of the Nova Scotia Community College to Nova Scotia's economy and the communities where the College has campuses.
In this episode of the "Insights" podcast, Don Mills and David Campbell talk to CEO Don Bureaux about the transformation of the institution over the past 20 years, its role as an employer and economic enabler, and its success adapting to changing labour market needs.
"We exist ... to produce the human capital for the economy," says Bureaux. "Approximately 90 per cent of our students are working within six months of graduation within their field of study. About 90 per cent of those graduates are working in the province of Nova Scotia. Even more impressive, a large percentage are working within the county or the next county in which they studied."
"So we tend to have students who live in their community, study in their community and work in their community."
We also talk about the increasing collaboration between the College and the universities in the province and the work of the College directly with the private supply to train workers to meet increasing job demand.
The “Insights” podcast combines the experiences of an economist, David Campbell, and a social scientist, Don Mills, to explore the challenges and opportunities facing Atlantic Canada, promote data-driven decision-making among policymakers, and encourage a wider dialogue and debate leading to greater prosperity for the region.
