Sharing Alberta's Knowledge

ATCO Gas and ATCO Electric support more than a dozen scholarships and bursaries across the province in addition to other innovative programs. At Norquest College in Edmonton, ATCO supports the Ben Calf Robe Culture Camp that has helped students to learn about their culture and heritage, and put teachings into practice under the guidance of a Cree Elder.

Teaching Power, an ATCO Electric school resource program that teaches kids about electricity. The award-winning school program was designed with Alberta teachers for Grades 4-6 about how electricity is generated and delivered in Alberta, how to be safe around electricity and how to conserve electricity.

Alberta’s Computers for Schools program provides refurbished and reconditioned computers to schools, public libraries and not-for-profit learning organizations that may otherwise not be able to obtain these resources. By supporting the program, ATCO I-Tek not only retires computer assets in an environmentally responsible way, but also contributes to the continued education of Alberta students.

Every year, almost 900 schools, libraries and not-for-profit learning organizations benefit from the Alberta Computers for Schools program. ATCO I-Tek has donated hundreds of computers, monitors and printers to the program.
