The Government of Alberta has announced its intention to grow apprenticeship opportunities across the province. If its Budget 2024 passed, AB would invest an additional $24M annually over the next three years to create 3,200 apprenticeship seats across 11 postsecondary institutions. This investment would increase the total funding offered through the Apprenticeship Learning Grant to $78M for the 2024-25 academic year. “Investing in apprenticeship education will supply Albertans with in-demand skills, nurture homegrown talent and support our labour market with world-class skilled tradespeople who keep our economy moving,” said AB Minister of Advanced Education Rajan Sawhney.
