Calgary College Campus News

Beginning in 1911, Robertson College has provided quality vocational training in Western Canada.  Almost 100 years later, Robertson College has grown from a secretarial school in Saskatchewan to one of Western Canada’s premier vocational training institutes with campuses in Calgary, Winnipeg and Brandon.   

Since opening the Calgary campus in 2004, the campus has grown from offering one program to now offering seven.  “Our winter enrollment has increased 27% over last year!” states Keith Kristalovich, the new Campus Director for the Calgary Colleges campus.  “We have experienced most of our growth in the Pharmacy Technician and Veterinary Office Assistant programs.  Graduates of these programs are highly sought after by Calgary employers.”   

Robertson College has recently completed some renovations creating new classrooms and office space to make room for these new programs and increased enrollment.  “We are excited about the renovations that just took place,” said Kristalovich. “The added space has allowed us to continue offering small class sizes providing students more one on one time with their instructor.”  An additional Pharmacy Technician classroom and lab, extra class space as well as a new admissions area were added to the college.  The public is welcome to come down to view the new facility. 

The College started three new programs in the fall of 2008 with each program designed to have students career ready in under a year.  The Administrative Professional, Legal Administrative Assistant, and Travel Counselor programs are the newest programs to be offered.  Each program started in the late fall or early winter with classes offered in the afternoon.  With the first classes underway, employers are already asking for these students to come and interview with them, especially in the travel industry.  “According to the CITC (Canadian Institute of Travel Counsellors) there is an industry shortage of certified Travel Counselors across the country.” said Kristalovich.  “Students who graduate from the Travel Counselor program can enjoy a rewarding career with unlimited potential.”
