An Introduction
CAREERS: The Next Generation is an industry-driven private/public partnership dedicated to the career development of Alberta's youth. CAREERS is a catalyst bringing together industry, educators, government, communities, and students to meet the inter-dependent needs of youth employability and skilled labour shortages. We are a proven entity with a solid track record of strong performance and impressive results.

CAREERS invests in the workplace of the future by:
  • Helping students make the link between their classroom education and their future workplace careers.
  • Enabling students to explore career options through workplace internships.
  • Supporting career education by helping students understand the real world of work.
  • Promoting student awareness in specific fields where real opportunities exist for future jobs.

Our results are impressive. Our pathways have expanded to include Trades and Technologies and Health Services.

As a result, students have an increasingly diverse range of careers they can explore, and they are entering the post-secondary world and the workforce poised and motivated for accomplishment.

As a result of our work together, students will find careers that are fulfilling, employers will have employees with the right skills, educators will be linked with employers, and communities across our province will grow and flourish.

Our Vision
Strong vibrant communities where youth develop their paths to career success.
