Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I have to sign a participation agreement?

There may be unique risks involved in the off-campus activities of some courses and programs. The participation agreement gives you notice of those risks so that you are fully informed. You are required to sign the participation agreement and assume those risks in order to participate in the course or program.

If you don’t sign the participation agreement, you may not be able to participate in the activity and may not be admitted into your desired course or program.

The relevant participation agreement will be sent to you from the Registrar’s Office as part of your application and registration process.

Do I have insurance coverage for off-campus learning activities?

If you participate in the Selkirk College Students' Union My Benefit Plan, access the My Benefit Plan booklet for information on your coverage and get details about your life and accident insurance.

If, as a full-time student, you opted out of the Selkirk College Students' Union My Benefit Plan, or you are a part-time or Community Education & Workplace Training student, please check your extended health plan to see what coverage you may have.
