Hi

I'm an instructor at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology in
Calgary, Alberta and we are in a unique situation where we have too many
job offers and not enough students to fill them for our Telecommunication
Technology and Broadcast Electronics Technology programs.

In Dec 2004, we had 11 Telecommunication graduates and over 80 employment
opportunities available. This April, we have 25 graduates and another 47
employment opportunities available. In Alberta, the starting wage for our
Telecom graduates is typically $22.00/hr and higher.

The Broadcast Technology program (the only one in North America) is in a
similar situation where we have 2 employment opportunities for each
student. We have requests coming from all over Canada and North America for
our graduates. The starting wage for Broadcast Technology graduates is
between $35,000 - $45,000 per year.

If you would like to find out more about these unique programs and the
opportunity to find a well paying rewarding career, click on the websites
listed below.
