The Office Administration program completed a major program revision, effective July 1, 2026. At Saskatchewan Polytechnic programs go through a major program review at least every five years.
Many of the courses remained the same but were refreshed or renamed. Two courses were removed and two courses were added.
The changes include:
- New course: OPRO-110 Administrative Skills and Procedures replaced OPRO-105.
- OPRO-105: Will no longer be offered after Spring 2026.
- New course: COMP-118 Advanced Spreadsheet Techniques not offered until January 2027 (Winter 2027).
- CKEY-102: Fall 2026 will be the last on campus/virtual offering and Winter 2027 will be the last Continuing Education offering of CKEY 102. If you are part way through the Office Administration program and have not taken CKEY-102, you must enrol in this course by January 2027 (Winter 2027).
- New course: COMP-125 Emerging Technologies in the Administrative Workplace not offered until Winter 2027.
