Alberta Jobs Now Program Information for Bow Valley Employers 

Join the BVCC and  Alberta Labour and Immigration Employer Program Services for a Q&A and info session on the Alberta Jobs Now Program Information. 

The Government of Alberta is helping Albertans get back to work through the Alberta Jobs Now Program. This program provides funding to private sector businesses and non-profits to help reduce the costs of hiring and training Albertans for new jobs. 

Employers can apply for a grant equal to 25% of a new hire’s salary up to $25,000 per employee. Employers hiring a person with disabilities can apply for a grant equal to 37.5% of the new hire’s salary up to $37,500 per employee. Employers can apply for up to 20 full-time hires per intake period. Grants can be used for salary and/or training costs. Learn more about this program and how to apply at the August BVCC Business Boot Camp!
