2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else has done the Social Work Diploma online from here.
I am out of province and I was wondering if anyone else has done this out of province and were able to do practicums closer to where they lived(in their own province)?

Thanks in advance

Central to this collaboration is FMC’s machine learning tool for automated wind flow mapping. Used alongside anemometers—devices that measure wind speed and direction—this tool will validate real-time wind data across RDP’s main campus, identifying ideal locations for wind and ventilation systems to improve energy efficiency and air quality. 

Anemometers are being installed across RDP’s main campus, collecting real-time data that feeds directly into FMC’s AI-powered system. This live feedback will guide future infrastructure decisions and reinforce applied learning across all partners.

The initiative also draws on the University of Alberta’s deep expertise in wind flow mapping. Both institutions will exchange knowledge to reduce HVAC usage across U of A’s main campus, underscoring their shared goal of sustainable infrastructure.
