Program Delivery
In response to COVID-19 directives from Alberta Health Services, this program will be delivered through a distance learning model until further notice. As the province begins to open its doors, we will continue to determine the safest steps to bring learners back on campus and into the classroom. Online learners are asked to have:

base-line computer and typing skills
daily access to a reliable computer (Monday to Friday, 9:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M.)
reliable internet service
a comfortable chair
a workspace away from distractions
a working microphone and video camera
Please note: learners will be expected to open and save Word documents, email and send attached files, as well as access lessons and materials shared on Moodle and Microsoft Teams).

Our re-launch plans continue to move forward in a cautious manner where staff and student safety comes first.
