Medicine Hat College, the University of Calgary, and the University of New Brunswick have each celebrated the launch and recognition of new programs. MHC has launched a two-year Addictions Counselling program that has officially received recognition from the Canadian Addiction Counsellors Certification Federation. UCalgary has launched two graduate programs—a master’s and a PhD program—in Transdisciplinary Research that will bring together students from various academic backgrounds. The programs are the first such programs to be housed directly within the Faculty of Graduate Studies. The UNB McKenna Institute, the Joint Economic Development Initiative, and Thales also recently hosted a new 12-week program to support Indigenous people interested in cybersecurity careers.
