Your Alternative to Traditional Nursing School in Calgary

ABES has educational affiliation agreements with Alberta Health Services in Calgary, Lethbridge and Edmonton.
So you can take the classroom portion of the program in Calgary and then complete your practicum and obtain employment in Lethbridge or Edmonton. This is a real advantage if you want to be a Medical Laboratory Assistant and live in Lethbridge, where there is no MLA program offered, or Edmonton, where there are lengthy waitlists to get into the program. You don’t have to go to a traditional medical school or nursing school in Calgary to enjoy a rewarding career in health care. As a Nursing Attendant, Health Care Aide, Lab Assistant or Medical Office Assistant, you will play an important role in the lives and well-being of others.
