A Major Funding Step Forward For Parkland College

   The Saskatchewan Government has announced 10 million dollars for the Parkland College to help build a new Trade and Technology Centre.
    In making the announcement, Premier Brad Wall says this will increase the number of graduates in highly skilled areas, and allow Yorkton area students to study closer to home.
   The 25 hundred square meter facility will graduate 360 more students per year, and will go to tender next month.
   Parkland Regional College has raised over $8 million dollars through their Capital Campaign
   Wall also announced a 150 thousand dollar provincial matching scholarship donation by the Yorkton Tribal Council to help applicants from the 6 first nations with their education over the next 5 years. Parkland College is awarding $20 thousand of the scholarship this year, $40 thousand in 2014 and $80 thousand in 2015.
