TAKE ON THE FUTURE

Are students ready for what comes next?

Do Employers have a plan to attract new talent?

CAREERS HAS THE ANSWER

CAREERS works with Alberta schools to connect students to employers for paid internships.

High school students learn and earn as they test drive different careers through paid internships, helping them find out what kind of work appeals to them.

Employers are able to promote opportunities in their industries. And our corporate partners and donors not only support Alberta’s youth, but they are also instrumental in building a stronger, more resilient economy.

With CAREERS, everyone wins.

"Luciano Alvarez

My parents moved to Canada from Chile to provide a better life for me and my siblings. Doing an electrician internship was probably the biggest and best choice I’ve made in my life so far. I want to make my parents proud and hopefully get my journeyman’s ticket by the age of 21. I love what I do. It doesn’t get any better than this

CAREERS opportunities attracts the youth and then we are able to bring those youth to our site to participate in the trade. Our current workforce is made up of a lot of people that have come through the CAREERS program and stayed on long term with Syncrude
