Ft St John – The Industrial Instrumentation program at Northern Lights College is the beneficiary of a $50,000 donation from Alliance Pipeline Limited’s Community Investment Fund.
 
The funds are being used to purchase equipment for NLC’s Level 4 Apprenticeship program, which is offered at the Fort St. John Campus. Equipment to be purchased includes a Vibration Shaker and two sensor units, a three-level Elevator Simulator trainer, and two Level measurement trainers.
 
Trevor Loberg, Grande Prairie Area Manager for Alliance Pipeline, said that this donation is an important one for his company.
 
“In our office, three-quarters of our staff are involved with instrumentation, so this is an important skill set for what we do,” Loberg said. “Educational institutions are the cornerstone of the community, and Alliance believes the Fort St. John area is an important area where we can be more involved.”
