Student project possibilities...
There is an opportunity for municipalities in the region to utilize SAIT students (or other students) for small projects. I was approached by a group of students from SAIT that will be starting their final project in the new year and they are looking for the opportunity to work on a real-world project. If your municipality, or anyone else you may know of, is interested, let me know and I can give you more details and help put you in touch with some of these students.
