Accelerating the Transition to Registered Nursing in Canada
In response to Canada’s nationwide nursing shortage, Saskatchewan Polytechnic has emerged as a leader to address the critical gap. Through its Transition to Registered Nursing in Canada program, Saskatchewan Polytechnic equips internationally educated nurses with the essential skills and training required for a successful transition into the Canadian healthcare sector. Originally nine months in length, the program has been condensed to just 14 weeks, providing an accelerated, cost-effective and accessible pathway. Starting in Summer 2024, the institution partnered with the Government of PEI to extend the program across provincial borders to meet the growing demand for nurses in Atlantic Canada.

Advancing AI Systems in Agriculture
As innovation intermediaries, polytechnics are helping businesses rethink their processes, products and systems. Hubs such as Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s Digital Integration Centre of Excellence (DICE) act as a testing ground for environmentally focused applied research. DICE recently joined forces with Ground Truth Agriculture Inc. to refine their cutting-edge artificial intelligence grain grading systems.
Aiming to provide farmers and buyers with accurate and reliable grain quality information, DICE helped build a visual detection model, giving student interns valuable experience in ag-tech machine learning. Building on this success, the polytechnic’s graduates are continuing to work on a new detection model supported by a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada Applied Research and Development grant.
