Red Deer Polytechnic's (RDP) Practical Nurse Diploma program is expanding to Camrose, offering new opportunities for local students. Beginning in Fall 2025, the program will accept 16 students, with eight reserved for those from the Camrose area. The program will combine online theory courses with in-person lab sessions, held at The Bethany Group's Corporate Office, located at 4612 53 St., Camrose.

This expansion is part of Campus Alberta Central, a collaboration between Olds College and Red Deer Polytechnic, designed to bring post-secondary education to communities throughout Central Alberta. Local learners will benefit from increased access to education while addressing workforce needs in healthcare.

The Bethany Group is excited to be able to support the development of rural education opportunities through hosting the in-person lab sessions and looks forward to this collaboration.
