ATCO Community Symposiums
ATCO Gas and ATCO Electric have a long history of supporting rural Alberta
and the people who live and work there. With many of our employees and
customers living in rural communities across Alberta, ATCO plays an
important part in sustainability of these communities.
For more than a decade, ATCO has partnered with a number
of communities to offer the Symposiums to help not-for-profit
organizations and those in the volunteer sector stay informed about the
latest trends and best practices in their industry. Comments and
feedback from hundreds of speakers and participants has been
overwhelmingly positive demonstrating the program's success in advancing
the knowledge and capacity of people working to improve the quality of
life in rural Alberta.
Topics have ranged from helping communities enhance the
energy-efficiency of community-owned buildings, arenas and facilities; to
best practices in fund development and new trends in fundraising;
