Welcome from the President

Welcome to New Westminster College!

New Westminster College is one of the youngest and most entrepreneurial institutions of higher learning in Canada. The academic and research community at New Westminster College includes three founding constituent schools, which are the School of Leadership, School of Diplomacy and School of Language, all engaged in academic rigour and innovative thinking dedicated to the professional development of individuals, entrepreneurs, executives and leaders.

Many countries are represented in our global student body, including exceptional undergraduates beginning their professional training and development, seasoned executives and entrepreneurs requiring knowledge and skills upgrading, and lifelong learners wishing to learn to enhance personal development.

One of the significant assets at New Westminster College is the seasoned experience and academic qualifications of our faculty. Students at our Leadership School will encounter both rigorous world-class curricula and professors well experienced in their respective profession. Our leadership and management programs have been previously taught by active and former corporate presidents, CEOs, and military Generals and Flag Officers that provide invaluable insights to effective and ethical leadership. Students at our School of Diplomacy also encounter rigorous world-class education often taught by former diplomats, political leaders and government executives that provide unique experience and perspective into diplomacy, governance and public administration. Students at our School of Language benefit from learning English as a second language utilizing world-class and innovative learning materials. Our language students span the spectrum of English language development. Some students are learning English for the first time to gain employment or admission to University, while others are learning English to qualify for a business or teaching certification.

Learning at New Westminster College is challenging, enjoyable and rewarding. Students are welcomed and continuously encouraged to achieve their highest potential. Alumni and graduates of our programs remain lifelong members of our academic family and benefit from friendships established within our global professional network.

You are invited to contact us to discuss your learning and career aspirations, and I personally look forward to welcoming you to New Westminster College.
