Partnership Development Office
Partnership Development Office (PDO)
Partner for a Better Future
We support partnerships and educational projects for Vancouver Community College that benefit learners, industry, and our community.
Partnerships that make a difference
The Partnership Development Office (PDO) develops and delivers innovative skills training and workforce development projects in collaboration with the college, community, industry, government, and other stakeholders. The projects we support are aligned with the vision of VCC's Strategic Innovation Plan.
Over the years, our team has implemented a wide range of customized educational projects designed to provide learners with access to the labour market, community, and further post-secondary education. These projects support diverse students such as new immigrants, youth, mature workers, and indigenous persons who may experience barriers to engaging in traditional post-secondary education.
