The Northern Alberta Sailing College is a non-profit organization that operates on Lake Wabamun from both the Wabamun Sailing Club and the Edmonton Yacht Club. We also have the Mobile Youth Optimist Sailing School which is a program that is mobile and can be offered in other venues throughout Northern Alberta.

Courses in basic and more advanced techniques of sailing and racing are offered. Every year, many children, teenagers and adults are trained by our carefully chosen Canadian Yachting Association Certified Instructors.

Instruction is designed to stress the fundamentals of sailing including the parts of a boat, the rigging and de-rigging of a boat, safety, the language of sailing, and the points and actions of controlling the boat, trimming the sails and docking.
