Leaders and educators from across the country gathered in Victoria, BC for three days of panels, workshops, presentations and networking opportunities during Colleges and Institutes Canada’s (CICan) Annual Conference April 29 to May 1.

With the theme Na’tsa’maht, a word used in the Lekwungen, SENĆOŦEN and Hul’qumi’num languages which loosely translates as “We Are All One,” the conference provided a meeting place where college and institute representatives and their industry partners gathered to discuss and share insights on the future of education delivery, community building, innovation, leading change and much more.

CICan was proud to announce the recipients of its 2018 Awards of Excellence during an awards luncheon on April 30. Among them, was Avery Konda, a recognized Georgian changemaker and outgoing President of the Georgian College Students’ Association in Barrie. Avery received a silver in the Leadership Excellence for Students category.

Congratulations!
