As a result, all classes and programming will be cancelled for the remainder of the week, with programs offered online or through alternate delivery options as of Monday, Mar. 23.
“We recognize that these are unusual and challenging times,” said Dr. Larry Rosia, CEO and president at Sask Polytech. “Thank you to our students, faculty and staff for your patience, cooperation and the care you’ve demonstrated for yourselves and others on our campus communities. We all can help to prevent the spread of COVID-19 if we each do our part and work together. The health, safety and security of our students and employees is of the utmost importance.”
The plan will see classes suspended until Friday, Mar. 20, when more information will be provided to students and employees regarding online or alternative delivery where possible. Online courses and other programming will then begin on Mar. 23, wherever possible.
Sask Polytechnic supports work from home and telecommuting arrangements where work can be performed from home, as much as possible.
All Sask Polytech campuses currently remain open, although limited services may be available. All fitness centres will remain closed until further notice.
Travel restrictions remain in place with all areas outside of Saskatchewan subject to approval.
