Manitoba Vocational Centre Brandon to Move to New Complex
The Brandon campus of the Manitoba Vocational Centre will relocate this September from its current detached site to a new complex. Founded in 1961 as Brandon Vocational Training Centre, it began with twenty two students in two courses and has since expanded to eleven courses serving about 300 students annually with eighteen teachers and six administrators. The new centre will offer twenty four courses to about 850 students, with admission limited to age sixteen and requiring proof of age and scholastic standing. Pre requisites vary by course from Grades IX to XII level, with certain technology programs wholly post high school. Younger applicants may enter Basic Training for Skill Development programs Levels II. Course lengths range from weeks to two years depending on level and content.
