Since the inception of the OCQAS, a number of new academic programs are now available to students. Bolstering those programs is the Credential Validation Service, which has led to commendable practices in higher education. Thanks to OCQAS, committed professionals from each of the colleges work together regularly to build continuous improvement in the curriculum. That’s powerful.

Working with OCQAS has provided immediate dividends for Durham College. It brought all of our departments and employees together for detailed and reflective discussion about quality, our strengths as an institution and our opportunities for improvement. These experiences have benefited us greatly. Our team is stronger, with deepened commitment to quality practices, we put change into action, and Durham has established itself as a leader for growth in enrollment, programs and services to students.

We know that Ontario colleges deliver high quality and relevant programming, taught by dedicated and top-notch faculty. But having OCQAS in place, additionally, to measure and validate that quality benefits our students considerably, ensuring they acquire the skills and training they need to secure the jobs they want. Our faculty is very proud that their programs get that external stamp of approval. Likewise, the community and employers benefit as well.
