  • Awards Booklet 2017
    fund your future AWARDS, BURSARIES & 2017 SCHOLARSHIPS A listing of information sources to help in the planning and funding of your post secondary education. Finances are important considerations as you embark on your educational journey. However, before finances enter the radar, you might want to explore just what post-secondary education means. Post-secondary education is simply education after high school. Let's explain: Another word for high school is secondary school; the word 'post' simply means 'after.' And, so if you're finishing high -- that is, secondary -- school, post-secondary education is simply the next step on your educational journey. Look how far you've come already! Choosing to take the next step on your educa- tional journey can reap tremendous benefits. In Alberta, the average salary of a university graduate is around $60,000, while a community college graduate earns an average of about $50,000 year. Compare the salaries of these post-secondary graduates to the annual earnings of Albertans with a high school diploma: less than $40,000. Imagine the difference over a lifetime. And, that's just from an economic per- spective. Take a long-term view: 10, 20, or 30 years from now. Imagine yourself with post-secondary edu- cation. And, on the flipside, without post-secondary education. Ultimately, post-secondary education opens the doors to a better quality of life. You might say that high school + post-secondary school = more opportunities. There are whole host of opportunities for post- secondary education. In Alberta, post-secondary insti- tutions, such as universities, community colleges, and technical institutes, offer accredited programs and courses.

  • Alberta's Colleges Ready to Act on Alberta 2030 Strategy
    Alberta’s colleges ready to act on Alberta 2030 strategy May 4, 2021 – Alberta’s colleges are ready to respond to the Alberta 2030: Building Skills for Jobs strategy by continuing to provide adaptable, relevant, hands-on training that prepares students to support Alberta’s employers and economy. The strategy, released by the Ministry of Advanced Education on Thursday, supports the work already being done by the province’s 11 Comprehensive Community Colleges. Located in all regions of the province, Alberta’s colleges provide access to education and a variety of educational opportunities to all Albertans. Alberta’s colleges work closely with industry partners to ensure their applied degree, diploma, certificate and apprenticeship programs provide both the technical skills and the employability competencies needed to prepare students to enjoy fulfilling lives and careers. “Alberta 2030 provides a roadmap to ensure the province’s post-secondary system plays a strategic role in preparing Albertans to participate and succeed in the 21st century economy, and Northern Lakes College is pleased to be part of the solution,” says Glenn Mitchell, Northern Lakes College President and CEO. “The Alberta 2030 strategy allows us to reflect on the work already being done to support students and industry, and to explore opportunities for increased support and collaboration,” says Dr. Paula Burns, Lethbridge College President and CEO. “We are proud of our industry-driven education and applied research, and we know we are well-positioned to deliver on the province’s post-secondary needs now and into the future.” Alberta’s colleges are committed to making post-secondary education affordable and accessible for all Albertans at all stages of their post-secondary journey.
