It’s the end of two programs at Confederation College as it permanently suspends its Digital Media Production and Tourism, Travel, and Eco-adventure offerings.
Academic Vice President Neil Cooke explains it’s because of declining enrolment, especially in Digital Media.
He explains it’s the successor to the Broadcasting program, which was reworked into Digital Media in 2018.
“They had basically a three-year run. The first two years, we started off with 28 students in the class, and it started to slide immediately in the following year, 2019, and then last year enrolment was so low that we suspended the intake,” Cooke says.
The current class of students will be able to graduate, and no new students will be accepted into the programs.
