Thank you for your e-mail letter.
This government has been challenged to ensure that post-secondary
education remains affordable for both students and taxpayers.
Like other college boards, the Board of the Alberta College of Art
and Design has the authority to make decisions regarding the
programs they deliver. I am sure the Alberta College of Art and
Design would welcome an industry partnership so they can continue
to deliver industry specified programs.
I appreciate being advised of your concern, and urge you to
continue working with Alberta College of Art and Design on this
matter.
Sincerely
Clint Dunford
Minister Advanced Education and Career Development
