New Brunswick Community College (NBCC) is a public college located throughout various locations in New Brunswick, Canada, including Moncton, Miramichi,[2] Fredericton (its head office[1]), Saint John, St. Andrews, and Woodstock.

New Brunswick Community College provides over 90 programs, offered at six campuses, First Nations sites, and regional delivery sites throughout the province of New Brunswick.

On May 29, 2010, New Brunswick Community College embarked on a self-governance model with the proclamation of the New Brunswick Community Colleges Act. The move established NBCC as an autonomous Crown Corporation whereby the President and CEO of the college report to an elected Board of Governors.[3]

NBCC is a member of many national and international organizations, including Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan). Through its membership with CICan, NBCC has signed the Indigenous Education Protocol.[4]
