Co-developed Dual Credit Rehabilitation Medicine

T8 Polytechnic Opening 

I am so excited to say that Treaty 8 Education co-developed a dual credit rehabilitation medicine course with the University of Alberta. Through this historic signing of memorandum of relationship agreement, the first of its kind any Treaty 8 high school school student can take this course. After successful completion of the 8 weeks course finished with a practicum week at University of Alberta, students will have credits towards their Grade 12 diploma and have 3 credits towards a degree at University of Alberta.
