Interprovincial Collaboration

Release Point Education recently brought Portage College, Nova Scotia Community College, and Loyalist College together to support military-connected learners. This is a first of its kind in Canada and will:

  • maximize credit transfer
  • streamline enrolment procedures
  • share prior learning recognition strategies
  • allow for late entry (two weeks post-program start)
  • recognize military-connected learners as a unique group requiring additional support.
