eCampusAlberta’s lead and partner model enables students to take courses from institutions that may be far away from where they live while accessing services, such as the library, at an institution located close to where they live.

"My full-time job requires travel both domestically and abroad and having the advantage of completing assignments from any location allows me to continue my studies. Having a family involved with sports, I am able to attend extracurricular activities and complete homework at the same time. Attending a standard ‘bricks and mortar’ building would require too much scheduling and missed class time."
- Ron Hynes, Management Studies, Grant MacEwan University
