  • Forging Ahead to Find a Local Solution for Kemptville College
    News Release May 8, 2014 Forging ahead to find a local solution for Kemptville College North Grenville, ON – Nearly two months after the announcement that the University of Guelph’s Kemptville and Alfred Campuses would close, provincial facilitators have finally been appointed. However, the provincially-appointed facilitators are unable to work with stakeholders on a solution for Kemptville College until after the June 12th election. Rather than allowing further delays that put the future of the campus at risk, The Kemptville College Renewal Task Force is busy finding new life for the College during this period. “We are seeking formal Expressions of Interest from potential partners interested in providing post-secondary education and research services at Kemptville College,” said Brian Carré, Chair of the Kemptville College Renewal Task Force. “A number of public and private sector groups have already come forward with proposals.” The Task Force is focused on local solutions for Kemptville College that respond to the needs of the agriculture and agri-food industries along with skilled trades while providing reasonable access to relevant and affordable post-secondary education for the people of Eastern Ontario. “We want to hear from potential partners interested in operating the campus and delivering educational services and a research program aligned with the Task Force Mission Statement,” continued Carré. “We’re also looking for innovative programming – such as international education and research, training certification, private and public sector use of facilities, corporate and community partnerships – to ensure the long-term success of a renewed Kemptville College.” The Task Force will be receiving Expressions of Interest until May 28th.
