Olds and the Olympics

Although the weather was not ideal (snow, sleet and rain), there was still a great turn out at last week's Career and Education Fair in Olds. Several students asked about coming next fall and if they apply, they may still get in. There are many programs at SAIT that still have availability.

The Provincial and Canadian Skills Competition/Career Path Showcase will be held in Calgary on May 22-27th where competition will range from autobody repair to welding, graphic design to baking. Students must complete projects assigned by experts in their field . If you are interested in watching the trades compete, come down to the Stampede grounds. Next year, Calgary will host the World Skills event where all the world will come to see the "olympics" of the trades.
