"We want to give everyone in the community the opportunity to experience OC and are calling it Doors Open at OC," explained Alison Gibson, dean of community engagement and careers at Okanagan College. "Everyone is welcome to attend to meet and chat with members of the OC executive and leadership team, tour Salmon Arm campus points of pride, explore our learning spaces including new student housing and find out more about the College."
Attendees will learn about new and existing programs offered locally and across the region, find out about Camp OC interactive summer day camps packed with adventures for kids in grades 1 to 12 and even enter to win tuition vouchers for OC's InspirED (Continuing Studies and Corporate Training) programs and short courses.

It's a chance where you can learn about OC and the College can hear directly from the local community."
