AIM student becomes a social media celebrity
Administration Information Management student becomes social media celebrity
It was only last summer that one of our graduates placed first worldwide in an international Microsoft Office competition, and already another Administrative Information Management (AIM) student is looking to take over that top spot.
The only difference is that, this time, she'll be posting her training experience for the world to see on "Career Factor," an online reality show created by Microsoft.
Caroline Weilinger, Class of 2011, was selected as one of nine individuals from across the world to be featured in the online program, after being nominated by her instructor Janine Violini.
Over the next few months, she will share her training progress using a variety of social media tools (blogging, videos, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to name a few), as she gears up for the Certiport 2011 Worldwide Competition on Microsoft Office taking place July 31 to August 3.
We encourage you to visit Career Factor or follow C_Weilinger on Twitter to track Caroline’s progress and cheer her on!

Movie Stars at SAIT
Just before heading out for the winter holiday, my teammate Sarah and I had the opportunity to film a recruitment video. It was one of the coolest days at work. However, working in front of the camera is a lot harder than it looks.
Sarah performed very well delivering her lines. We had the use of a teleprompter, but I still managed to mess up nearly every time. Fortunately there will be no blooper reel.
Stay tuned for the final product. It’ll be posted on SAIT’s YouTube channel in the near future. Hope you like it!
All the best,
Jason

I wanted to remind everyone SAIT will be hosting a fall Open House on October 22 and 23.

Keep in mind, students can submit one online application during Open House at no charge! Plus there is a draw for $1,000 tuition credit.
After Open House, we will be hosting a number of Information Sessions. One targets interested future students and one will focus on students who have already submitted an application. Visit the events calendar on sait.ca for more details.

Montana Band Camp Blog
Hey everyone!
I hope you are all having a fantastic summer. Today we have Jennifer Russell blogging about a group of students visiting SAIT from the Montana Band. Jennifer is the Chinook Lodge Student Advisor. She works with our Aboriginal students here at SAIT. Check out her blog below:
Since July 4, we have had 24 youth from Montana Band and their chaperones visiting SAIT for a two week summer camp. During their stay they have been attending classes on trades or media, taking part in several field trips, and enjoying many extra-curricular activities. During their evenings, the campers and their chaperones have visited places like the Calgary Tower and the Glenbow Museum.
The camp is divided into two groups; trades and media. Those two groups are then split into two, one week programs for Broadcast TV News and Digital Photography, and Carpentry and Machining. This week the youth have been progressing through their lessons on Digital Photography and Machining.
The Photography group has gone on two field trips this week to the Calgary Zoo and Heritage Park, and today will pay a visit to Riley Park. They have obtained some very dramatic photographs. The Machining group has been on a field trip to Laser Equation to study laser cutting and the students have done work with metal casting and moulding.
If anyone has any questions about Chinook Lodge, just send me an email. I would be happy to answer them.
Thanks,
Jennifer
