Public Interest Disclosure (Whistleblower Protection) Act
In 2013, the Government of Alberta enacted the Public Interest Disclosure (Whistleblower Protection) Act and associated regulations. The legislation protects employees making disclosures of wrongdoing that they have observed in the workplace for the purpose of facilitating the disclosure of wrongdoing, resolving problems revealed through investigation, and promoting public confidence in the public sector. In compliance with legislated reporting requirements, no disclosures were received or referred under the Whistleblower Protection Act in 2020–21.
Thank you, AU, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me achieve my dream of earning my degree. Thank you for breaking down the barriers in students’ lives that keep them from receiving an education. Thank you for transforming my life.

Knowing that AU is supporting me throughout my program provides me courage, comfort, and drive to keep reaching toward my goal and completing this program successfully. As a nurse who is currently working full-time, I am grateful that a convenient university such as AU exists.

Since enrolling as a student with AU, I have not had to sacrifice opportunities, goals, or dreams. Their structure has fit into my life (and my structure into their life!) with ways that allowed me to continue to pursue any opportunity that came my way. I am grateful for the structure AU provides.
