Good reviews from Canadore College President George Burton on yesterday’s provincial budget.

He says he’s pleased with the government’s commitment to micro-credential retraining and to technology and infrastructure investments too.

Burton says the budget includes $59.5 million over three years to support Ontario’s new micro-credentials strategy, which will help people retrain and upgrade their skills to find new employment.

He says the budget also recommended that colleges get approval to offer career-specific three-year degree programs that will support economic growth.
