Description

In 2006, the Government of Alberta released Building and Educating Tomorrow’s Workforce (BETW). The strategy outlines 17 actions to address labour force development through four themes: Inform, Attract, Develop and Retain. Under BETW, each ministry identifies specific labour force actions and initiatives, with funding allocated through ministry budgets based on provincial priorities. These funds are used strategically to build on and improve provincial initiatives such as those for apprenticeship and community employment. Other funding permits the creation of new programs and initiatives, such as virtual job fairs, collaborations with industry that increase the number of people with trade skills and labour market forecasting publications.
