Budget reductions at CNC to include layoffs

The College of New Caledonia (CNC) is anticipating an operating deficit in the 2025-2026 fiscal year following a decline in international student enrolment.

The decline follows federal changes to regulations for international students to study in Canada.

According to a news release, CNC is planning budget reductions through a combination of eliminating vacant positions, reviewing and revising admission capacities, and layoffs across all employee groups.

The details of the changes will require several months of planning.

CNC will revise its enrolment targets and make program changes to achieve a balanced
budget based on predictive enrolment data.

The college will sustain programs for international students who are currently enrolled so they may complete their studies.
