The alumni campaign supports the efforts of 51³Ô¹Ïapp’s Going Beyond campaign. The $16-million campaign charts a course for 51³Ô¹Ïapp to: 

• accelerate skills development by creating fast, flexible training opportunities such as microcredentials and shorter pathways to certification;   

• innovate educational delivery by creating modern, connected spaces, and introducing new technology such as accessible HyFlex classrooms, surface hubs, and simulation labs; and 

• reach unprecedented numbers of New Brunswickers by reducing financial barriers to post-secondary education through targeted bursaries for under-represented groups such as Indigenous students and women in trades.
