Our students don’t study the future —
they shape it

We train the REAL PEOPLE who get the REAL WORK done

The world of work is changing fast. We need new skill sets and technical capabilities to help our industries, communities, and economies not only keep up, but grow and thrive. While we can’t predict what tomorrow will look like, we can prepare our students to succeed within this constant change.

Together, we’re creating wide-open possibilities and endless opportunities – we're creating REAL FUTURES™.

Our industries need tomorrow’s talent, TODAY

That’s why we teach more than theory, we equip our students with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in an ever-evolving world.

Oki, Âba wathtech, Danit'ada, Tawnshi, Hello.

SAIT is located on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi (Blackfoot) and the people of Treaty 7 which includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut’ina and the Îyârhe Nakoda of Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney.

We are situated in an area the Blackfoot tribes traditionally called Moh’kinsstis, where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. We now call it the city of Calgary, which is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta.
