About Wrenford Polytechnic

Learn it. Build it. Work it.

Welcome to Wrenford Polytechnic, a public college of applied arts and technology in the City of Wrenford, Ontario. We opened our doors in 1967 as the Wrenford Institute of Technology and have grown into a modern campus with two locations. Our motto is "Made to work" because we focus on practical skills that prepare you for your career.

Two campuses, one college

Our main campus sits in the Benchlands neighbourhood on Benchlands Drive. It holds most of our schools, our residence halls, and the Kestrel Centre for athletics. Our downtown campus is on Mercer Street and hosts our business and media programs. Both campuses are close to public transit.
