Hands-on experience for future Power Engineers

Our Power Lab gives students the practical steam time they need to move forward in their Power Engineering careers. Whether you're pursuing a full certificate program or only need hands-on lab hours, we offer flexible, high-quality training options that fit your path.

What is the Power Lab?

The Power Lab is a state-of-the-art training facility that simulates real-world plant operations. Students work directly with live steam systems to meet Alberta Boilers Safety Association (ABSA) requirements for certification.
