The 2023 graduating class of the Practical Nursing program.
More than 100 graduates from the Practical Nursing program were recognized at a pinning ceremony on Thursday, June 1 at the Algonquin Commons Theatre on the Ottawa Campus. During the ceremony, a special pin is affixed to the graduate’s clothing by a fellow practicing nurse, symbolizing their professional entrance into the nursing field.
A reception preceded the ceremony where students and their families gathered to mingle and sample various canapés on offer. Algonquin College President and CEO Claude Brulé was on hand to take part in photos with students in front of a practical nursing backdrop.

Congratulations to our latest cohort of graduating Bachelor of Hospitality and Tourism Management (BHTM) students that raised $26,324.62 for five local charities:
- CHEO
- Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation
- Do it for Daron
- Canadian Guide Dogs
- Harmer House
In addition, 10% of monies raised went towards a scholarship to help BHTM students in need.
This group of students has shown perseverance and dedication to their industry through planning, executing and hosting live events this spring – all on a zero budget. These events are now in the history books but the impact of the money raised remains.
We wish them well in their future endeavours.
