Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training site for those looking for a career in the skilled trades. Industries that rely on apprenticeship training – including construction, transportation, manufacturing and services – have been growing and need new workers. These jobs are highly skilled and pay well. Governments have responded to this need for skilled people and have invested more in the apprenticeship system. This means new facilities and equipment and more classes. Tradesecrets is the site with up-to-date and complete Alberta information.
