Private Colleges Association of Nova Scotia

Our Role
PCANS is committed to providing effective leadership in post-secondary education and to promoting a strong private training industry.

Compared to other training institutions, private colleges offer extensive instruction over a shorter period of time.  Our students benefit from smaller class sizes, varied intake dates, flexible scheduling and job search assistance.

All members of our association are monitored and regulated through the Department of Education, to ensure students achieve an education level acceptable to industry.  Employers hire our graduates because they are job ready!

In three successive surveys of employers, the Canadian Federation of Independent Business found that Private Colleges scored highest in "Degree of Satisfaction in Preparing Workers for Employment".
