History & Location of School

Vancouver Community College (VCC) was formerly the Vancouver City College. VCC was established in 1965 by bringing the Vancouver Vocational Institute (1949), the Vancouver School of Art (1925), the Vancouver School Board’s Night School Program (1909) and the King Edward Senior Matriculation and Continuing Education Centre (1962) under one name.

The Vancouver Community College has two campuses - the Downtown Vancouver Campus and the Broadway Campus. VCC used to have a third campus known as the Langara Campus. However in April 1994, the Langara Campus separated from VCC to form Langara College.
