“It’s so great to have Valemount College as part of our community. With tourism growing in Valemount, it only makes sense to offer tourism-based post-secondary education right where it all happens. Valemount College’s Mountain Adventure Tourism program provides a firsthand view on adventure tourism, in a community surrounded by three majestic mountain ranges. We are a rural and somewhat remote community, so the College’s Rural Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management certificate program captures the joys as well as some of the challenges of starting and running a small business in a community like ours. We often have clients who are looking for post-secondary education opportunities closer to home, and we are happy to refer them to Valemount College. Students get personalized services with Valemount College’s smaller class sizes. It’s a perfect mix of quality education with a small town feel.”
