Just outside the shadows of the Red River College campus in the Exchange District, college president Paul Vogt spoke before an attentive Manitoba Chambers of Commerce audience on the future growth and focus of the institution to launch the new season of the MBiz Breakfast Series Presented by 6P Marketing.
The focus of the 30-minute speech focused on the work that continues on the Red River College Innovation Centre. The 94-million dollar, 100,000-square-foot building, will bring an additional 1,200 students and staff to the Exchange District on top of the 2,500 already there.
With the added students comes new challenges to provide them with the top of line education and development of in-demand programs to help fill the Manitoba job market with much needed skilled workers.
