Strategic Plan 

Our Purpose

Growing a vibrant future with learners and our region.

Our Culture

We will bring passion to our purpose. Our culture will embrace teamwork, mutual respect, and diversity. We will promote an inclusive environment where individual differences are accepted and valued. We will lift each other up, build on each other’s strengths, and trust each other to always do our best. Aligned to a common purpose, our culture will become the foundation that allows us to achieve our goals.

Guiding Principles

Mutual respect for individual differences and honest, transparent communication form the basis of our interactions. Accountability for our actions means we can be trusted to do our best work.
We promote partnerships, knowledge sharing, and working together to accomplish greater things. We recognize the importance of diverse perspectives, including those from inside or outside our walls as well as those that support or challenge our ideas. Collectively, we shape our pursuits.
We act with purpose. To do so, we are willing to take calculated risks and allow for failure. We are curious, ask questions, and when necessary, adjust our actions to be more impactful. We stay connected and are empowered to make decisions that lead to purpose-driven growth.
MHC Strategic Plan Goal 1

People in our region can access education

We meet learners where they’re at. We remove barriers for the diverse population we serve. Through flexible programming, pathways, and alternative delivery methods, learners get what they need, when they need it, and in ways that work for them. Our partnerships enhance our ability to achieve this goal.
MHC Strategic Plan Goal 12

Learners are prepared to realize their goals

We combine academic theory and practical application to give learners a competitive advantage in the labour market. With an emphasis on wellness, inclusion, and a foundation of skills, we prepare learners for success in college, in the workforce, and in life
MHC Strategic Plan Goal 3

Reginal vitality is strengthened through our work

Focused on the future of work, our programs align with the needs of the region while opening doors to the world. We are agile in our ability to design, develop, and adapt based on a shared understanding of the current and emerging needs of our region. As leaders in collaboration, we are allies in regional development. We identify emerging trends and work with regional partners to rapidly prototype solutions.
