Parkland College gives tour of Emergency Services Training Site

Members from Sakimay First Nation and the File Hills Qu’Appelle Tribal Council were among those to tour Parkland College’s new and improved Emergency Services Training Site in May. “We wanted to showcase what level of training we offer, and I think we opened some eyes,” said Shelley Cherney, Parkland College’s Coordinator of Emergency Services, in a news release. “This is the only full-time professional firefighter training program in Saskatchewan. As we seek recruits for our next intake, we wanted these First Nations leaders to have firsthand experience to share with others in their communities.”
