In 2015 AltaGas participated for the second time in the SHAD Valley program. SHAD Valley empowers exceptional high school students to recognize their own capabilities and envision their potential as tomorrow’s leaders and change makers. Students attend a month in residence at one of 12 host universities, focused on science, technology, engineering and math.

Part of AltaGas’ commitment is to share insight and expertise with SHAD Valley participants through a presentation made by staff members to SHAD Valley students at the University of Calgary.

AltaGas also sponsored and organized a full day of activities at the Harmattan Gas Plant, which gave students an opportunity to see first-hand how a major natural gas facility operates.
