Celebrating alumni connections and impact
NSCC alumni are known for their impact across industries and communities, pride for their NSCC education and entrepreneurial spirit – areas which Alumni Relations supports through a range of initiatives.
From community favourites like Shop NSCC to new initiatives such as the Alumni Awards, we are proud to celebrate and support the ongoing interests and endeavours of our alumni through our Alumni Engagement Fund.
Some highlights from the year include:
- A 50th class reunion and Animediafest 20 celebrating 25 years of the Digital Animation program at Truro Campus.
- Hosting 20 Convocation Alumni Receptions across the province.
- A series of low-to-no cost social events like the Grand Opening Alumni Tour and Reception at Sydney Waterfront Campus, Alumni Night with Thunderbirds Lacrosse and Afternoon at the Wanderers Grounds.
- Sponsorship of NSCC career fairs, pop-up events and showcases that connect learners with industry such as Spark Creativity.
- The launch of (including funding grants to pilot) Entrepreneur-in-the-Making Black and African Nova Scotian Cohort, partnered with Blk Women in Excellence.
