Getting Started

Welcome to the Saskatchewan Polytechnic community! We want you to get started and feel ready to embrace your academic journey with us.

Student orientation

Join us for a series of orientation programming designed to help you learn about the many supports and services we have available to help you succeed in your studies and enhance your Sask Polytech experience.

Whether you prefer to explore at your own pace or dive right in, we’ve got you covered.  

Self-Guided Orientation is a go-at-your-own-pace online orientation accessible to all incoming students and available to revisit throughout the 2023-24 academic year.

Learn about the supports and services available to you as a student with this online orientation. It’s delivered using Brightspace—Sask Polytech’s online course system—where you’ll soon be logging into your courses.
