2021 was a year of growth for Northern Lakes College! Our enrolment increased, we opened a new campus in Fox Creek, expanded service to the communities of Drayton Valley, Hinton, and Whitecourt, and moved into the new High Prairie Campus.
Despite the ongoing challenges provided by the COVID-19 pandemic, in the 2020-2021 academic year, we experienced enrolment growth, as more and more Albertans discovered our accessible SDL model. We also achieved a retention rate of 86%, proving that our innovation and support promotes the success of each and every one of our students.
As we reflect on the successes and challenges of 2021, one thing remains certain: At Northern Lakes College, we count our success one student at a time.
