Loyalist College - Definition

Loyalist College (officially Loyalist College of Applied Arts and Technologyis an English-language community college in Belleville, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1967 as part of a Provincial initiative to create many such institutions to provide career-oriented, hard-skills diploma and certificate courses as well as continuing education programs to Ontario communities. The name of the college reflects the founding of the area's original settlement by United Empire Loyalists.

Originally operated out of a local high school, Loyalist College moved to its present 200 acre (0.8 km²) campus on Wallbridge-Loyalist Road in 1968. The college operates a satellite campus in Bancroft, Ontario and is associated with First Nations Technical Institute in the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory Indian reserve.

Loyalist College is well-known in the region for its journalism, photojournalism and radio and television broadcasting programs as well as its health services programs.
