Our logo is comprised of the “impossible C” shield icon and a wordmark set in our primary brand colours of burgundy and gold.

The two twisting shields represent innovation and the understanding and new perspectives that come with education. They also bear a likeness to the two “C” letters in the college’s name. The shield is accented with a flame, a symbol of the enlightenment that comes with education and study. This flame is connected to the college’s Coat of Arms. The shape of the flame pays homage to the dragon’s mane of the previous logo.

The wordmark is in Visby CF, a clean, modern, and accessible typeface.

The shield and wordmark work together in modern, clean, yet classic and elegant styling to reflect the strong, long-standing history of the college and its forward-thinking vision for post-secondary education.
