  • Institutional Accountability Report and Plan
    Institutional Accountability Report 2018and-19 to 2021Plan-22 July 2019 Coast Mountain College Accountability Statement July 3, 2019 Honourable Melanie Mark Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills and Training Parliament Buildings PO Box 9080 Stn Prov Govt Victoria, BC V8W 9E2 Dear Minister Mark; On behalf of the Board of Governors and the employees of Coast Mountain College, we are pleased to provide you with the 2018/19 Institutional Accountability report. This report reflects upon our success over the past year as we move towards the direction laid out for the next several years under the Coast Mountain College strategic plan. With the senior leadership in place, the organization has been working with community partners on several key initiatives: Effective June 18, 2018 Northwest Community College officially became Coast Mountain College (CMTN). The name change comes after two and a half years of research, community engagement and a strategic planning process that involved staff, faculty, students, alumni and community members. During the last year, the college rolled out its new name with a new brand image. The name Coast Mountain College and the brand chosen was chosen both link the importance of the people, places, geography and culture that are only found in this part of the country. This new visual identity also reflects the connection to community that we know is so dearly valued by our alumni, staff, students and other stakeholders in the community. The colour is a nod to the glaciers and rivers that define the area. The logo includes C-shaped forms referring to the coastal areas of the region and an M shape that represents the mountains.
