    Alberta Employment Connect acknowledges that our work takes place on the traditional and ancestral territories of many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples across Alberta, including Treaty 6 and Treaty 8 Territories.

    We recognize and honour the Indigenous Peoples who have stewarded these lands since time immemorial and whose cultures, histories, and contributions continue to shape the communities we serve today.

    As we support job seekers across Edmonton and surrounding communities, as well as northern smaller urban and rural communities, we are committed to listening, learning, building respectful relationships, and supporting reconciliation through our work, partnerships, and actions.
