It can be hard to find a good job and start a career in the trades if you don’t have the training and skills you need. Our Trades Training programs have been helping Calgarians build new careers as apprentices and journeypersons in the trades for over 25 years.

In our free Pre-Apprenticeship Training Programs, you will have the opportunity to upgrade your skills, get access to real on-site experience, and receive hands-on training with our industry partners.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds, birthplaces and gender identities. Canadian citizens or permanent residents or refugees* may apply.
