Career Education Task Force, Government of Alberta

The task force was established in July 2022 to review career education, with a focus on grades 7-12.

Task force members are currently engaging with Albertans, including various education, industry and business stakeholders across the province to hear a broad range of perspectives.

Insights from the engagements and review will inform their work developing:

  • a provincial framework to guide future career education programming, including curriculum and funding
  • a final report with recommendations for innovations and enhancements to strengthen career education programming for students and employers

Your feedback will help the task force determine what is working and where there are opportunities for change.
