NorQuest College

As Alberta’s largest community college, NorQuest provides a work-relevant education that includes hands-on learning opportunities, workplace practicums, and supportive instructors. From class to career, NorQuest College supports our learners’ success through student services, including free tutoring, health and wellness services, career counselling, cultural support for Indigenous students, and much more.

NorQuest offers over 60 programs in Health, Business, Community Studies, Environment, Technology, Arts and Sciences, Continuing Education, and Foundational Learning. Students can choose between accessible study options, including in-person, online, or a mixture of both. We also keep our class sizes small, so students can learn directly from instructors with industry experience and receive more one-on-one support.

Most importantly, we strive to create an inclusive, diverse, and uplifting campus experience—a place where all students can find a sense of belonging. There are a total of 77 first languages spoken on campus, and we welcome students from 102 different countries of birth.
