The Calgary Board of Education (CBE)–in partnership with the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology and several industry partners–recently announced the development of a new Digital Futures Pathway program for secondary students. The initiative will enable participating high school students to enroll in online and in-person internships and postsecondary courses in the field of information technology. Students can choose one of three pathways for their studies: business fundamentals, communications technology, or innovation technology. The program was made possible thanks to $6.2M in funding from CBE and the Government of Alberta and is set to launch in Fall 2024.
