That said, Calgary is not a traditional market at the moment so if she knows her stuff and is reliable and well presented, she should be able to score a good job in the oil patch. But without a degree, she might not be shielded from HR's wrath when the market turns south (if that happens).

Getting a certificate/diploma from SAIT or MRC would help immensely.
