NSCC Institute of Technology Campus

We love this new way to honour graduates!

Celebrate your grad in a meaningful way with a tribute card🎓💙

NSCC Foundation is piloting a new initiative at Cumberland, Truro, Kingstec, Lunenburg, Ivany, Institute of Technology and Akerley convocations. With a suggested minimum donation of $10, you can get an exclusive tribute card to mark their big day and represent a gift made in their honour.

All proceeds go to NSCC Rapid Response, helping the next wave of learners reach this important milestone. Not attending one of these convocations? You can still make a gift in honour of your grad at support.nscc.ca/rapidresponse 💌

The next time you visit NSCC Institute of Technology you will be greeted by the Mi'kmaw 8-pointed NSCC Eagle Star, created by Mi'kmaw Artist and Educator Steve Francis.

As shared by the artist: "The Golden Eagle (Kitpu) to me represents Freedom with Education or a Trade like the eagle soars freely high in the sky. The 8-Point Star with the Mi'kmaq colours at the ends represents the students that are in the program and trying to become the eagle. The outer blue ring represents NSCC itself and the white pieces represents the faculty that will help you reach your endeavours. The four feathers represents the future students that want to spread their wings and fly with the eagles."
