French Dual-Credit Course with Campus Saint-Jean

CyberStart Canada  Spots still available for the CyberStart Canada program. An interactive way for students (aged 16- 24) to explore cybersecurity through real-world challenges and games.

Florence Nightingale Day, Saturday, November 29, 2025 at the University of Calgary. This full-day event introduces students, particularly those from underrepresented communities to the fields of statistics, data science, and mathematics through hands-on activities, engaging speakers, and interactive workshops. The goal is to inspire young learners to see the power and creativity of working with data in real-world contexts.

SET (Science, Engineering and Technology) Conference  Saturday November 22 at the UofA. This fun and interactive day shows young women and gender-diverse students in grades 10-12 that there is more to science than medicine, more to engineering than building bridges, and more to technology than sitting behind a computer screen. SET jobs are interesting, collaborative, diverse, and support every aspect of our lives.

 Unique Pathways applications open on October 1

CBE collaborates with post-secondary institutions, industry partners and community organizations to offer a wide-range of unique opportunities for students. These range from practical, hands-on learning experiences in Exploratory programs to Dual Credit courses and programs that allow students to participate in post-secondary learning with the support of a supervising CBE teacher. These programs allow students to complete high school their own way, and set students up for future success by easing the transition to post-secondary learning and/or the workplace. Contact Mrs. McLeod for information about applying.
