The Laurence Decore Award for Student Leadership is awarded to a full-time student in a NorQuest College career program with a minimum 60% course load. This award recognizes students who demonstrate leadership through involvement in student government, student societies, clubs, organizations at the institutional, provincial, or national level, or through participation in non-profit community organizations. Recipients must maintain satisfactory academic standing and demonstrate meaningful contributions to their communities through leadership activities.

The Black History Month (BHM) African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) Bursary was established to support students from the ACB community during their studies at NorQuest College. The Black History Month Working Group at NorQuest College creates and runs various events throughout the month of February, which is recognized as Black History Month in Canada and is a time to honor the contributions of the ACB community. This $500 bursary is made possible through fundraising events such as the Black History Month Marketplace, which showcases the work of ACB artists, businesses, and non-profit organizations in and around the Edmonton area. Proceeds from these events directly fund the bursary and support student learning. The bursary is awarded to a Black student enrolled full-time in any NorQuest College Foundational or Career program who demonstrates financial need and satisfactory academic achievement with a minimum GPA of 2.0 (50%). Students are only eligible to receive one Black History Month Bursary per academic year.
