Holland College is celebrating the 50th Anniversary of its founding this year and kicking off a strategic planning process, Holland College president Dr. Alexander (Sandy) MacDonald announced today.

The college has partnered with VOLUME 18, a local communications firm, to conduct a strategic planning process to set priorities for the college. The theme is #Next50 and will use stakeholder facilitation sessions, online surveys and one on one conversations to collect ideas and suggestions from industry, the general public, students, staff, and faculty.

“It’s fitting that we are embarking on this process during our 50^th Anniversary. Holland College has campuses and centres across the Island and it’s important that we provide Islanders the opportunity to help shape our future. We’ve made great progress since our founding fifty years ago, and we are looking forward to seeing what new and innovative ideas are out there,” Dr. MacDonald said.
