$600,000 CAPITAL INVESTMENT IN SIAST - WOODLAND CAMPUS

Released on October 16, 2000

SIAST will be enhancing technology used for on-line training and services for

students at four SIAST campuses, thanks to a $600,000 investment by the

provincial government.



"Strengthening our public institutions is one of the best ways we can celebrate

Saskatchewan's centenary," Post-Secondary Education and Skills Training

Minister Glenn Hagel said. "This funding will help SIAST, including Woodland

Campus, to offer education and training, anytime, anyplace, which makes

learning more accessible and affordable."



SIAST plans to use the funding to offer services including increased access to

on-line training and services for students and enhanced access to the library

and other learning resources via technology.



"Some of the key recommendations in this year's report of the SIAST Review

Committee focussed on using technology to increase access to training and to

enhance learning," SIAST President Dr. Art Knight said. "This funding will

help us meet this goal."



The funding is from the Centenary Capital Fund, announced in this year's budget

to leave a legacy of Saskatchewan's centennial for future generations. Leading

up to the centennial celebrations in 2005, the Saskatchewan Government is

funding projects that support key infrastructure needs in the post-secondary

education and skills training sector.
