PROGRAMS LIKE OURS HELP YOUTH TAKE ON THE FUTURE!
- Dale Tiedemann
Through a grant provided by the Community Foundation of Northwestern Alberta, CAREERS can ensure as many communities as possible can benefit from their delivery of in-person and virtual program offerings, including classroom presentations and handson exploration events like Tours of the Trades and Forestry Quick Connects.

Dale notes, “Experiential learning is the perfect way for students to see what they like and what they don’t, before investing substantial time and money into their post-secondary education. They can earn credits, get paid, and in some cases, get an incredible head start on achieving their career goals. Imagine if every career path had a similar program? What a strong, fun-filled future workforce we could build. Programs like ours help youth take on the future!”
