Access to the Future Fund

Access to the Future Fund

The Access to the Future Fund supports innovation and excellence within Alberta’s advanced learning system. It serves to enhance and expand accessible, affordable and high quality learning opportunities for Albertans.

Established in 2005 by the Access to the Future Act, the Fund receives income from an endowment that is targeted to reach $3 billion at full implementation. The Minister of Advanced Education and Technology administers the Fund based on advice and recommendations from the Access Advisory Council.

Through two unique programs, the Renaissance Fund and the Innovation Fund, the Fund plays an important role in moving Alberta’s advanced learning system to the next levels of innovation and excellence.
