NAIT International & Intercultural Community Centre

The official page of NAIT International & Intercultural Community Centre (IICC), Northern Alberta Institute of Technology.

The NAIT International & Intercultural Community Centre (IICC) serves a large and growing population of over 3,500 international and newcomer students from over 130 countries, helping them adapt to NAIT, Edmonton, and Canadian culture. It is a safe, community-oriented space on campus. We do everything possible to grant our international and newcomer students the “Canadian experience”: from hosting

cultural events and informational workshops, to familiarizing students with uniquely Canadian activities, to helping students find employment. Besides acting as a ‘home’ for international and newcomer students on campus, the International & Intercultural Community Centre undertakes to promote diversity, multiculturalism, and internationalization across NAIT’s campus. The IICC is quickly becoming recognized as a focal point for international education of all kinds at NAIT. This page is an extension of the IICC. Feel free to ask questions and interact with staff here on Facebook as you would in the IICC. (NOTE: questions about admission to NAIT should be directed to [email protected], or the askNAIT page here on NAIT website www.nait.ca).
