In this project, Douglas College establishes a Western Colleges Mobility Network (WCMN), a new network founded by nine colleges and institutes with the goal of increasing overall student mobility via field schools, short-term mobility, semester exchanges and hybrid opportunities.
The WCMN members leverage government investments in the BC Transfer Guide and their own investments in study abroad infrastructure, partnerships, and scholarships to achieve the goal. Cooperations lead to increased seat utilization of available exchanges and study abroad projects, thereby lowering costs to students. Network members are committed to sharing best practices, intelligence on project opportunities, and support faculty leadership development across institutions.
