Canada-Alberta Job Grant

The Canada-Alberta Job Grant is closed for applications until March 31, 2025. This closure is due to the federal government's decision to cut funding delivered under the Canada-Alberta Labour Market Transfer Agreement. Applications submitted prior to the closure will continue to be processed.

You can read more about the reasons for this closure in the Minister’s Statement.
