Canada-Alberta Job Grant

If the courses you take with us are related to your work, your employer (or future employer) may be able to help with funding through the Canada-Alberta Job Grant (CAJG). CAJG is an employer-driven program that covers 2/3 of eligible training costs — up to $10,000 per employee per year. Employers can access up to $300,000 per fiscal year. If hiring and training an unemployed Albertan, up to 100% of training costs could be covered, up to $15,000 per trainee.

A training quote is a requirement of this program — and we can help. Contact us at corporatetraining@mtroyal.ca for more details.
