What is a "tertiary college"?

A tertiary college refers to an educational institution that offers post-secondary education, typically after high school or secondary school. It focuses on providing specialized programs such as diplomas, certificates, or vocational training that prepare students for specific careers or further education. Tertiary colleges may offer academic, technical, or professional courses that are often shorter than degree programs at universities. They serve as a bridge for students who may not be pursuing a full university degree but still want to gain skills and qualifications for various industries.
