Indigenous employment training

Employment training programs

Two programs exist to create training and work experience projects that lead to employment for Indigenous members:

• Aboriginal Training to Employment Program (ATEP)
• First Nations Training to Employment Program (FNTEP)

These programs support the development of partnerships with:

• First Nation Bands
• Treaty Councils
• Tribal Organizations
• Metis settlements
• employers
• Government
• Indigenous organizations

ATEP

Participants in ATEP may be Indigenous Albertans not on-reserve (including First Nations members off-reserve and urban Indigenous persons), or Metis on or off settlement.

For further information and requirements see:

• ATEP – Alberta Works Program Policy Manual

FNTEP

A minimum of 51% of individuals participating in the FNTEP project must be First Nations members (primarily living on-reserve).

For further information and requirements see:

• FNTEP – Alberta Works Program Policy Manual
