Why Ridge Meadows College?

How it Works


The CSW program may be taken full-time or part-time at whatever pace is comfortable.  Classes are generally during the day, several times per week.

RMC’s instructors are seasoned industry leaders with an emphasis on practical experience in the field.

Course sizes are generally limited to a max of 20 people, so students get plenty of face-time with instructors

The RMC Advantage


RMC is publicly operated by School District 42 (Maple Ridge – Pitt Meadows), one of the largest employers in Maple Ridge.  Its programs are designed to meet local market needs and to be of the upmost quality. Because RMC operates much like a non-profit, tuition fees are usually significantly cheaper than other private institutions and the quality of education on par with public colleges.
