Collège Boréal unveils its new website and brand image

Collège Boréal launches a new visual identity and website reflecting the diversity of its communities and the wide range of activities managed by this French-language institution across its vast provincial network.


SUDBURY, Ontario, June 19, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

Today, Collège Boréal proudly presents its new website and brand image to all the partners and francophone communities it serves in Ontario and internationally. This redesign coincides with a significant evolution in the institution’s mission in recent years, aligning with the needs of the Franco-Ontarian population and organizations consulted during the development of its 2020-2025 Strategic Plan.

A college of applied arts and technology and one of Canada's Top 50 research colleges, Boréal offers close to 80 post-secondary programs up to the bachelor's level, as well as a wide range of apprenticeship, upgrading, academic upgrading, continuing education and corporate training programs. It also offers important services to newcomers to Canada, such as settlement services, language courses, socio-economic integration support and other immigration-related programs. In addition, Boréal provides employment services in many regions of Ontario under the banner of Employment Options.

New brand image

Featuring a streamlined, more contemporary logo, Collège Boréal’s new brand image revives the visual identity of the school’s beginnings. With its gradient of colours symbolizing constant evolution, the new logo evokes the Northern lights, the three rays representing the educational, cultural and community crossroads that Boréal embodies. It also enhances recognition of the institution, bringing together under one banner all the services offered by Collège Boréal across the province and providing a unified brand image to all individuals, staff members and companies it collaborates with, regardless of the communication platforms used.
