Volunteer Awards

At Skills Alberta, we believe in Volunteerism. We’re proud to offer our volunteers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to become an integral part of a growing and supportive community. 

Volunteers are the driving force behind all Skills Canada Alberta activities. More than 750 Provincial
Technical Committee (PTC) members, judges, mentors and Try-A-Trade® volunteers share their expertise and time with youth in order to inspire them to pursue rewarding education and career opportunities.

Each year we recognize one volunteer who has gone above and beyond as our Volunteer of the Year.

Nominations for the 2023 Volunteer of the Year are now being accepted until February 6th, 2023.
