Skills Canada Alberta Competitions challenge high school and post-secondary students to reach for their personal best in a variety of trade and technology competitions.

We bring together experts from industry and education to create innovative challenges that will test your skills, and connect you with likeminded students and mentors who have a passion for excellence.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

High school students are registered by their teachers for the secondary events at the Regional or Provincial Skills Canada Competitions. Some competition areas have Regional Competitions that qualify them for the Provincial Competition, and other areas enter directly to the Provincial level.

To be eligible to compete in 2012 you must be:

• Enrolled in a public, separate or private secondary school in the same school year in which the Provincial Skills Canada Competition is held.
• Born on or after January 1, 1991.
• An Alberta resident
• A Canadian citizen

If you are interested in competing tell your teacher, download a scope and start training!

POST-SECONDARY STUDENTS

Post-secondary students, including apprentices, are selected by Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training or their Technical Institute/College to compete.

To be eligible to compete in 2012 you must be:

• Born on or after January 1, 1991
• Currently apprenticing in a trade or attending a technical institute

Every fall post-secondary students may apply online to be considered for the upcoming PSCC. If you are interested in competing tell your instructor and employer to nominate you, nominate yourself, download a scope and learn more about the competition!
