Description

Premier Danielle Smith cuts the ribbon on Alberta’s newest $29 million Skilled Trades Training Centre in Grande Prairie — part of a bold $100M provincial push to tackle labor shortages and future-proof the economy. The facility trains in high-demand trades like auto tech, plumbing, and heavy equipment, while apprenticeship numbers have surged 85% in four years. By September, 33,000 seats will be ready to launch students into jobs faster. New initiatives include a charter high school for grades 7-12 focused on hands-on trades training — all designed to make skilled careers accessible and secure, no matter the economic tide.
