President's Place - OACC

Welcome to OACC’s website.

The Ontario Association of Career Colleges’ common goal is to ensure Career Colleges throughout Ontario and their students succeed. Career Colleges are an important part of Ontario’s educational landscape – and have been for over 140 years. More than 60,000 highly skilled individuals graduate from the province’s career colleges every year.

Going forward, OACC will continue to focus on our core values concisely captured in the tag line “Strong Voice, Strong Support, Quality Education and Student Success.” In 2012-2013, OACC will advocate for equality in post-secondary education, work to increase the quality of our sector, provide important services to members and enhance student success. To do this, we will engage OACC members and create a culture of trust and collaboration. I encourage you to get involved and join a committee and /or run for the board as our association is only as strong as our members.

I look forward to working towards our shared goals.

Yours in education,

Peter Dykstra

President – Ontario Association of Career Colleges

Vice President of Operations – Medix Schools
