Aquaponics research project
In conjunction with researchers from the Aquaculture Centre of Excellence, Rob Sonnenberg is involved in an Integrated Fish and Plant Systems project made possible by a $2.1 million grant from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC). Rob’s focus is examining the quality and consumer acceptance of aquaponics produce.

New Wind Turbine Technician partnership
When working hundreds of feet in the air, there is no room for error. A new partnership with TEAM-1 Academy Inc., one of the world’s leading safety and rescue training companies, will ensure students in Lethbridge College’s Wind Turbine Technician program are trained to handle that challenge as they enter their careers. TEAM-1 Academy will provide world-class training and equipment to the college’s students and faculty over the next three years.
