Kootenay Columbia College celebrates graduation at new Rosemont campus

Kootenay Columbia College has celebrated its Graduation 2025 ceremony last weekend, marking a milestone event at the College’s brand-new Rosemont campus in Nelson.

The ceremony was both a celebration of the graduates’ accomplishments and a historic moment for the College as it begins a new chapter at its expanded campus. Family, friends, faculty, and community members gathered to honour the graduating students of the Registered Massage Therapy Program and the Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncture Program, who will now carry their skills and compassion forward to serve and uplift communities near and far.

“We’ve been working very hard to get the school to this level,” said Keshav Singla, President of Kootenay Columbia College.

“It is so rewarding to see this dream come to life at our new Rosemont location. We are very proud of our graduates, who will go out into the world ready to help people and make a difference.”

The event highlighted the College’s ongoing mission of creating a holistic educational environment, preparing students for careers in health, wellness, and community support. The new Rosemont campus provides an inspiring space for future learning and growth, ensuring that Kootenay Columbia College remains at the forefront of training tomorrow’s practitioners and professionals.

Community members interested in learning more about the College’s programs—or exploring ways to support future graduates—are encouraged to reach out.
