Hey guys, I am currently in the first year of the Respiratory Therapy Program at NAIT. Having previously completed a Bachelor of Science at the University of Alberta, I aim to approach post-secondary education with a broader perspective. Through the Education Advocacy Program, we aspire to ensure individuals are provided with the information to make an informed decision about their education and future. If you are interested in volunteering with us or you would like more information about our organization, feel free to email us at [email protected].

Are you interested in volunteering with the Education Advocacy Program?

We are a non-profit organization that focuses on providing information and resources to students preparing for life after secondary education. Our hope is that by explaining the merits of higher education, whether it be in University, College or Polytechnics (Trades), we can ensure that students make the most informed decision possible for themselves.

We are currently looking for volunteers to come explain these merits, dispel myths, provide factual information, and provide examples from their own personal life!
