Cambrian has over 4,200 full time students enrolled in business, applied arts, human services, health sciences, technology, communication and creative arts, hospitality and tourism, apprenticeship, skills, and trades, with an additional 10,500 registrations taken annually in part-time personal, professional and human resources development courses and seminars. The College offers about 105 full-time programs, eight of which are designed specifically for the Native community, and more than 800 part-time continuing education programs, courses, seminars, customized training packages, and distance education opportunities. A number of these programs and courses are delivered in a distance education format—through teleconferencing, independent study, and the Internet.

Cambrian's commitment to its many communities is evidenced by the Anishnaabe Studies Division, the College's centre for the advancement of Native education, by its status as a leader in the field of employment and education equity; and by its status as a leader in meeting the needs of persons facing a variety of learning challenges. Cambrian exemplifies the Canadian mosaic with about 350 First Nations students and a remaining population that is reflective of the multi-cultural community the College serves. Sudbury and other northern communities are evolving, are diversifying, are becoming leaders in the global economy. And so, too, is Cambrian.

Working in partnership with the business, industrial and professional communities, Cambrian helps ensure a continued skilled and competitive work force. It is a partnership of many benefits. Through a variety of employee and management professional development opportunities, Cambrian assists business, industry and the professions to address their human resources requirements. In turn, these communities, through membership on the College's Program Advisory Committees and Board of Governors, assist Cambrian in ensuring that programs and courses remain relevant and that graduates have the competitive edge in the job market.
