Smaller post-secondary campuses get more bandwidth nelson staff West Kootenay Advertiser
Students, faculty and staff at six regional public post-secondary campus locations in B.C. will enjoy faster, higher quality, more reliable online services thanks to network connectivity upgrades to increase bandwidth to their institutions. The upgrades will increase bandwidth from 2.5 to 10 times current levels and will benefit campuses in Golden and Invermere operated by College of the Rockies, and campuses in Hudson’s Hope, Tumbler Ridge,
Chetwynd and Dease Lake operated by Northern Lights College. “Working under the BC Jobs Plan with our partners in education, we’re taking action to ensure our public post-secondary institutions have the infrastructure, latest technology and equipment they need to prepare learners for jobs in the knowledge economy,” says Minister of Advanced Education, Innovation and Technology John Yap. This is the latest round of network connectivity upgrades that are benefitting public

post-secondary institutions throughout the province. Between April 2011 and October 2012 network connectivity upgrades were also completed for regional campuses including Selkirk College in Nelson, Cranbrook, Kelowna and Grand Forks. “With these network upgrades, smaller, regional campus locations gain the bandwidth they need to expand and enrich educational opportunities for their students and communities,” says Yap. The increased bandwidth supports educational tech-
nologies required by today’s learners, allowing institutions to expand their programming and instruction options to better serve the needs of students. For example, some campuses will gain a greater capacity to provide remote learning opportunities, allowing students to stay closer to home while they get the education, skills and training they need to succeed. The infrastructure work required to increase bandwidth at these six campus locations is expected to be completed over the next few months.
