Supports for Employment
As part of Alberta’s Recovery Plan, the Alberta at Work initiative has announced investments in job training programs to get Albertans the support they need. Most jobs lost during the pandemic have returned, but Albertans need to have access to employment supports so they can develop the skills necessary to fill those roles. Five ministries are working together to support new and transitioning workers to help them succeed in the job market. $600 million will be invested over three years in a series of programs to support job training. Labour and Immigration is investing $64 million into programs to assist Albertans in gaining work experience and training. Advanced Education is investing $235 million into programs to support enrollment growth, micro-credentials, and expanded apprentice education. Community and Social Services is investing $20 million this year to assist long-term unemployed people’s return to work.
