BTVI Exuma Campus Opened

A vision that was birthed ten years ago by Deputy Prime Minister and Exuma Member of Parliament the Hon. I. Chester Cooper became reality today as the newly renovated Bahamas Technical and Vocational Institute's (BTVI) Exuma Extension Campus was officially dedicated and opened.

During the ceremony dubbed, "BTVI Strong!", DPM Cooper reiterated a phrase coined by his mother - "They could fire you from a job, but they can't fire you from a trade". It is on this premise that the DPM declared the official opening of the campus as a "transformational change for Exuma and her cays".

"As Exuma's economy expands, skilled workers are needed," he said.
"This will go a long way in moving us forward."
