Building what Alberta needs most
Alberta's health-care workforce shortage won't be solved overnight, but it will be solved through education. A new gift from Manpower Services Alberta is helping SAIT expand its capacity to train the next generation of health professionals, equipping students with both the technical expertise and the durable skills today's health system demands.
A shared legacy of giving
Kathy Waram believed in the potential of young people. Now, through a legacy gift inspired by a memorable day watching skilled trades students compete, her generosity will help SAIT students pursue their education, showcase their talents at Skills competitions and, in turn, inspire the next generation to give back.
Making a difference with more than just a meal
A simple meal can change the course of a student's day — and sometimes their future. Thanks to donor generosity, SAIT's food security initiatives are helping students facing financial hardship access nutritious food, easing stress and giving them the support to continue pursuing their education.
Oki, Âba wathtech, Danit'ada, Tawnshi, Hello.
SAIT is located on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi (Blackfoot) and the people of Treaty 7 which includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut’ina and the Îyârhe Nakoda of Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney.
We are situated in an area the Blackfoot tribes traditionally called Moh’kinsstis, where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. We now call it the city of Calgary, which is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta.
