*In Alberta and Ontario, due to overwhelming demand for our programs, we have many more applicants than available seats. To ensure fairness, we use a computerized lottery system to randomly allocate available program seats to qualified applicants. Applicants not admitted by the lottery system will be welcome to reapply in 24 months. This lottery system also supports a research study that NPower Canada is conducting to measure the long-term effectiveness of our programs. Eligible Ontario and Alberta applicants are required to participate in this research study. Learn more about the research and lottery here.
*NPower Canada will never ask applicants or participants for any form of payment. Our programs are free. Should you receive any communication with a request for payment, do not respond and immediately notify us.
