Have you been hearing the term Campus Alberta a lot lately?

Campus Alberta is not a new post-secondary institution or a building. It's a movement that's building within Alberta for the advanced education system to focus strongly on the learner.

In Campus Alberta...

All publicly funded post-secondary institutions and the apprenticeship and industry training system are working together to achieve the following goals: 

  • Accessible, affordable and quality learning opportunities for Albertans.
  • Enhanced learner transitions into and movement within the advanced education system.
  • Learners who have the tools they need to succeed in their chosen learning pathway.
  • Lifelong participation in the advanced education system by all who have the desire and skills to succeed.

Private providers, community-based organizations and industry also have an important role to play in supporting these goals and the lifelong learning needs of all Albertans.

Campus Alberta is growing through...

  • flexible transfer arrangements between institutions (administered through TransferAlberta)
  • colleges and community organizations working together to assess and meet local learning needs
  • high quality online learning offered by 15 institutions through eCampusAlberta, and hands-on support for distance learners at over 85 northern Alberta learning sites.
  • a common industry-developed provincial curriculum that allows apprentices to take any period of technical training at any Alberta post-secondary institution
  • coordinated applications to any of Alberta's public post-secondary institutions and electronic transfer of academic transcripts (all through ApplyAlberta)
  • adoption of the Campus Alberta name and ideals by dozens of community-based adult learning sites across western and central Alberta
