������Ƶapp will be offering the following diploma and certificate programs at the new West Shore Campus in Langford starting in September 2025:

• Information and Computer Systems Technologist Diploma program prepares students for work locally and globally in the in-demand database design and management, network software design, administration, and operations and maintenance of networks and software.
• Early Learning and Care Diploma program sets students up with a career in the growing Early Childhood Educator field.
• Health Care Assistant Certificate program provides the knowledge and skills to work effectively as a front-line caregiver and part of the health care team in community and facility settings.

������Ƶapp has been offering courses at many locations in the West Shore for a number of years including Belmont Secondary School where over 600 students have already taken college programs. ������Ƶapp currently delivers University Transfer classes, Academic Upgrading courses and the Education Assistant and Community Support program.

“We’re bringing in-demand programs closer to students living in the West Shore,” says Richard Stride, Acting Provost and Vice-President, Education and Innovation. “������Ƶapp’s goal has always been to make our programs and courses as accessible as possible so we’re very proud to make more programs available closer to home.”

The campus is a first-of-its-kind partnership between ������Ƶapp, Royal Roads University, the University of Victoria with space for the Justice Institute of British Columbia and School District 62 (Sooke) programming. The five-storey, zero-carbon, mass timber building will include flexible learning spaces and classrooms, student supports, an Innovation Studio and space for Indigenous gathering. The West Shore Campus is meant to support one of Canada’s fastest-growing communities so more students can access education close to home for in-demand jobs and help build a stronger B.C. 

Additional information for prospective students is available at camosun.ca/westshore.

������Ƶapp has campuses located on the territories of the lək̓ʷəŋən and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples. Established in 1971, the college serves thousands of learners a year in over 160 certificate, diploma, bachelor's degree, post-degree diploma, and professional studies and industry training programs.
