COTR to expand Invermere campus in collaboration with DTSS

College of the Rockies will be expanding its Invermere campus in collaboration with David Thompson Secondary School (DTSS). The two institutions currently share a building: The college will take over the high school’s current art room and modernize the space to support COTR’s enrolment growth. In turn, COTR will build DTSS a brand-new art room using a $3.8M investment from the Government of British Columbia. “With the introduction of new programming like our Hospitality Management diploma, and subsequent enrolment growth, space is extremely constrained, limiting the campus’ course offerings and availability,” said COTR Director of Facilities Allan Knibbs. “This expansion is expected to address these issues.”
