Aboriginal Initiatives

Does your organization have an Aboriginal Initiative? CAREERS' Aboriginal team works with Aboriginal communities to raise awareness of career options in trades, industrial technologies and health services and improve access to our programs. CAREERS has Aboriginal youth exploring careers all over the province with our internship opportunities.

We recognize the unique challenges these youth face, including lower employment rates for Aboriginals. Our Aboriginal Youth Initiative aims to bridge the gap between the untapped Aboriginal talent pool and your organization's needs. 

By 2016, over 400,000 Aboriginal youth are expected to enter the labour market. That's a massive, mostly untapped resource for Alberta industry.
