About this program
The Canada-Alberta Productivity Grant is the successor to the Canada-Alberta Job Grant: Alberta's job-grant URL now serves the CAPG page. It is an employer-driven program that cost-shares direct training costs: tuition, course fees, textbooks, software, examination fees and approved travel. Employee wages are not eligible. Training must be instructional, involve a qualified instructor, take place in Alberta, and finish within 52 weeks. Apply before training starts.
Who is eligible
Private sector, non-profit, First Nations and Metis Settlement employers in Alberta. For existing employees the employer contributes 50% and government covers 50%, to a maximum of $5,000 per trainee per fiscal year. Where an employer hires and trains an unemployed Albertan, government covers up to 75% to a maximum of $10,000 per trainee. Company owners, family members and temporary foreign workers are not eligible trainees.
