CMTN releases more information about Hazelton campus closure

Coast Mountain College (CMTN) will continue to provide educational opportunities in Hazelton through existing community spaces on an as-needed basis.

That’s according to a recent announcement outlining more information about the closure of its Hazelton campus.

The closure was initially announced on October 20th as part of a restructuring of operations to rebalance the budget with declining international student enrollment.

Its mobile training unit would be used for future trades and academic offerings with currently scheduled programs still happening pending sufficient enrollment.

“Coast Mountain College will have a part-time employee in Hazelton to support students in-person from a local office and education offerings will continue to be available in local communities, based on interest and demand for courses and programs,” said President and CEO Dr. Laurie Waye.

The college added its board have agreed to sell the campus land and building with the proceeds to be used for future capitol projects.
