This college is a joke. The program is honestly insulting. So far it has been a complete waste of…read moremy time. The professors involved are incompetent and should not be getting paid to *link me an outdated textbook and link me to a youtube tutorial from some random guy back in 2014* and literally nothing else. They also can't seem to use common sense and provide clear instruction, such as course assignment due dates ANYWHERE- which you would think is the bare minimum a student could ask for. That, and I don't know, any communication in general from the actual professors, most of which have been radio silent and don't even answer help forums/questions from their students. :) Do not waste your money, effort, or time. This might as well be a scam.

They clearly do not review course content or instruction or assignments. I would NEVER hire anyone who has a certification from this school after experiencing it for myself. They also extort money from students after they withdraw due to terrible instruction and course content not being as advertised, claiming exaggerated hours of instruction and attendance and without providing evidence to that fact. STAY AWAY!!! They also do not allow work experience equivalencies or allow students to challenge program content. No formal means to file complaints about program content or quality of instruction. A formal complaint to the government is being filed as a result. Lawyers are also being involved.

While searching online for courses I could take, I came across Heritage-College, and that simple search opened the door to a life-changing opportunity. The staff at Heritage College were incredibly supportive and understanding of my situation, which gave me the confidence to enroll in the Pharmacy Assistant Diploma program online. The instructors were knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to help, making my learning experience both enjoyable and rewarding. Even though I am not located in Calgary, the skills and knowledge I gained through this program have already helped me secure a job in my own city. I am truly grateful for the encouragement and quality education I received at Heritage College.

For intellectual stimulation they offer free lectures showcasing some prominent experts in a number of ground breaking fields. They also offer networking opportunities through their Shindig events which are usually free. If you are looking for information for your child to attend the UofA, they have someone who will help you out. However, I get the sense that they are open to new opportunities to work with grads in helping get the UofA name out in Calgary. Talk to the staff, they are helpful and proactive. Use the facility so the UofA can see the value of having it there. Go UofA! 30/30 Yelp 30 Day Challenge

I signed up for an Artificial Intelligence (AI) course through the University of Calgary's…read moreContinuing Education department. There are roughly three AI courses that are free, thanks to Microsoft. You will hear a lot about Microsoft Copilot, its AI tool, throughout these courses. I like free courses. I didn't mind learning about Copilot. ChatGPT is the frontrunner these days. It's not my first rodeo (so fitting, as it's Calgary) for me to be a student at an Alberta university. I was with Athabasca University first. I took a couple of undergraduate math courses for interest. I then took a graduate course in program management in IT as my elective for my graduate degree. It's nice to say that I am formally a University of Calgary student. Since this course is free, there isn't a formal grade that you get at the end of it. It's kind of nice to not do assignments, tests, or exams. The course that I took was on AI essentials. It's for anyone who is interested in AI and the tools out there to help you make things easier at work or personally in your life. This course was asynchronous. It meant that we had a three-hour live session through Teams. My session was last Friday. We then had course materials (videos, PowerPoint presentation, and some supplementary materials) to go through at our own pace. I finished everything late Sunday night. I have always loved learning and the course material was fascinating to me. My first time going through graduate school (I was a Master's dropout for a brief period) consisted of declaring AI as my field of specialization for computer science. It's funny how I somehow knew that AI would be a thing, but didn't realize the extent until now. I don't have the same desire to code like I did back then. I do like to see how AI can make my job as a writer better or help me at home. Perhaps AI can fetch a decent recipe for me when I can't think of anything to make or can't be bothered searching for one online. I registered for this course in late January. I chose a date and time to participate in the live online session. The process was straightforward. Within a couple of business days, I got my unique University of Alberta student ID and was asked to create a password after getting a temporary one. Connecting to the Teams session was easy. I used my work Teams account to connect, so I didn't need to install anything. Even if you don't have Teams installed, the link throws you to your browser, so you can technically participate in the chat. One star gets removed for the discrepancy in this online session's start time. The receipt that I got said that this session was at 1 pm Mountain. The syllabus that I got both a week and a day before the live session stated 1:30 pm. I went with the latter. I entered the chat with 177 people. All I saw in the chat were folks debating whether the course started at 1 pm or 1:30 pm. Perhaps it was an oversight of the course instructor and perhaps another person handling the syllabus. It may be the course instructor handling both details and getting them wrong. It's the type of confusion that everyone didn't need on the first and only group session, but got it. Luckily, we didn't miss much. The session was recorded. The course instructor was knowledgeable. However, he had a tendency to say um a lot, which felt like a distraction. Three hours of him talking felt like an eternity. We got five minutes midway through to break, which didn't feel like a break at all. The course materials were great. I liked the videos and sample prompts to feed Copilot and more. I learned a lot. The remaining two AI courses that are free are synchronous in delivery. It means that there are three 3.5-hour sessions to attend live through Teams. I'm not sure whether I feel like attending them. Luckily, I have some time to think about it. I want to check out other courses that this university has to offer. I don't mind taking courses for interest, provided that the tuition is affordable. (96)

That morning, fell off bike and hit a tree, blood and cuts all over face and body parts. Finger/hand started to turn blue.
