Students from Assiniboine Community College took home 21 medals from the 22nd annual Skills Manitoba competition.
The event was held at Red River College’s Notre Dame and Roblin Centre campuses in Winnipeg on Thursday.
Students from the Brandon college swept all three medals in 3D Digital Game Art, IT Network Systems Adminstration, Website Design and Development and IT Office Software Applications, and took home gold for the first time in Carpentry and Electrical Installation.
The school sent 37 students from 13 skilled trades and technology programs, winning seven gold, seven silver and seven bronze medals.
