NSCC Lunenburg Campus Enrolment Holds Steady

It's another year of solid enrolment for the NSCC's Lunenburg Campus. There are 415 full-time students this year at the Bridgewater-based campus compared to 422 during the 2011-12 school year. Spokeswoman Kathleen Cameron says enrolment is holding steady throughout the 13 campus across the province. She says there were nearly 10,700 students enrolled in programs ranging from trades to health services. That's about the same as the last two years. Cameron says there have been increases in the number of students who are completing high school at the colleges, with about 2,100 students currently in the School of Access program. The colleges expect an additional 15,000 Nova Scotians will participate in apprenticeship training, customized training and continuing education over the course of the year.
