Stampede Crane is proud to inform its support for the new [URL=http://www.sait.ca]SAIT[/URL](Southern Alberta Institute of Technology) crane training program. The new SAIT campus is situated in South East Calgary. Politicians, SAIT representatives and CTV news were on site on the groundbreaking ceremony. The new building that is going to be erected at this site is going to be specifically related to the crane and hoisting training program. This important event reflected the strong and amazing working relationship between SAIT and [URL=http://www.stampedecrane.com]Stampede Crane and Rigging[/URL].SAIT, which celebrated its centennial on Oct. 16, marked another historic milestone today — breaking ground on the first new training facility of its second century. The customized training facility will be constructed on an eight-acre lot at 10490-72 St. SE, Calgary. When completed in the fall of 2017, the facility will house world-class applied learning labs for Crane and Hoisting Equipment Operator Apprenticeship and Iron Worker Apprenticeship programs.
“This new facility will dramatically enhance the learning environment for SAIT students and will include the best technology available, from crane simulators to a full crane maintenance shop, to labs designed specifically for ironworkers,” says Dr. David Ross, SAIT President and CEO.
Construction is now underway and will employ hundreds of workers start to finish. Alberta Advanced Education is providing $5 million in operating funding for the facility.
“This government is proud to support our post-secondary institutions, because we know good jobs begin with a good education. This new facility will provide innovative training opportunities to prepare Albertans for success as we build on traditional economic drivers and move towards a more diverse economy,” said Marlin Schmidt, Minister of Advanced Education.
