WIL Symposium

We are excited to announce that NorQuest College - in partnership with the AB WIL Practitioners, CEWIL Canada and Alberta Chambers of Commerce - will be hosting a one-day Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) Symposium on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, at our Downtown Edmonton Campus. 

This symposium will bring together WIL practitioners and leaders from post-secondary institutions to share best practices, explore innovative approaches, and discuss the future of WIL in Alberta. 

The program will include expert-led panels, interactive sessions, and insightful discussions featuring leading voices from higher education and industry. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect, learn, and ignite new ideas in the world of Work-Integrated Learning.

Stay tuned for more details on speakers and program highlights!

 

This event will be held on the traditional lands referred to as Treaty 6 Territory and the homeland of Metis Region #4. We recognize, with gratitude, how fortunate we are to live, work, and come together on lands that Indigenous nations have called home since time immemorial.
