Corporate Support

THANK YOU!

Organizations and private citizens have chosen to support the CRTP program in many ways. Many have chosen the host a work experience student and others have offered support other valued ways.

We would like to thank all of our sponsors at this time for helping to make CRTP the program that it is!

A special thanks goes to the following;

TRICO Homes 

Since 2007, TRICO homes have awarded a scholarship, which is for the full amount of the tuition for CRTP, to 5 CRTP students. This has allowed these students to benefit from the program and start their careers here in Canada.

Jacqueline and Desmond Lai

The Lai Family has donated funds to CRTP to support the incremental costs associated with travelling to a work experience placement outside Calgary. This was awarded to one individual from the January 2009 intake who secured a work placement in Edmonton. This fund is called the Jacqueline and Desmond Lai Award.

United Way of Calgary

The United Way and Bow Valley College are partnering on an mentorship program to be run out of CRTP.

Classroom Volunteers

We welcome the participation of community leaders and volunteers in the program.

  • volunteering in the classroom to share your knowledge and experiences with the class
  • presenting to the group on workplace issues
  • leading small group discussions on various job finding topics
