Keyano College's Fort Chipewyan campus serves one of Alberta's oldest communities, a remote fly-in town on Lake Athabasca. It mainly delivers community-based courses, upgrading and short programmes for local residents. International students usually study at Keyano's main campus in Fort McMurray instead.
