NorQuest staff are always asking the question: how will this change lives for the better? The Difference Maker Award recognizes an alumni who is now a NorQuest staff member and is committed to making the college a true place of belonging.
This award represents a NorQuest graduate who:
- Is currently employed by NorQuest College
- Upholds NorQuest’s values
- Is making a difference in the lives of students and staff
- Strives to fulfill NorQuest’s commitment to becoming an inclusive, welcoming, and supportive organization
Many NorQuest graduates end up back at the college as NorQuest staff. These individuals make a difference every day, helping support the next generation of learners, and are an integral part of Norquest's success.
