Local aviation businesses benefit from provincial grant
Several local aviation businesses are benefitting from the province’s $13 million investment into the aviation and aerospace industry.
The funding, through the Aviation Skills Grant program, was intended to strengthen the aviation workforce.
“The Aviation Skills Grant underscores our government’s commitment to helping the aviation industry take off,” says Matt Jones, Minister of Jobs, Economy and Trade.
“This program is fueling highly skilled workers in the aviation sector and is helping to reduce labour shortages, increasing our province’s economic competitiveness and facilitating the growth and development of Alberta’s aviation and aerospace industry.”
