The Confederation College website upgrade has been delayed from its anticipated launch date of November. The new website platform is being upgraded from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 and unfortunately, there have been delays from our vendor.   

We initiated a content freeze at the end of September, while the webpages and information were transferred over. We recognize that this has halted major updates and changes and we apologize for this. We share your frustrations and are doing what we can to ensure this project is completed.   

While we don’t have an exact launch date, we are hopeful for spring. In the meantime, we will remove the content freeze. If you have content changes that need to be made, those trained in making updates may request access from [email protected].    

It is important to note: ANY changes made on the current site, will not be replicated in the upgraded site and will need to be re-done once the site is ready. For this reason, we recommend you wait on large changes and track what you will need to re-do once the site is launched.  Only a limited number of users who had access previously will be allowed to regain access for now. 

 Anyone else who requires content changes can please email them to [email protected] Priority will continue to be given to program updates and turnaround time could be up to two weeks.  Please request your changes well in advance of when they are needed.  

Staff News and Events will also continue to run as usual.  

Thank you for your patience.
