The Alberta Workforce Essential Skills Society (AWES) is a training and research & development organization. Employers come to AWES when they want to increase productivity and workplace capacity. AWES works closely with leadership teams and individuals to define and achieve their workplace learning and development goals. We put ourselves in your world, as objective observers who can provide sound advice, innovative ideas and strategies to close essential skills gaps. AWES is proud of our track record in implementing essentials skills solutions. Our project managers focus on effectiveness and efficiency in a world where both employers and employees are pressed for time. Most often, AWES implements solutions alone, but we collaborate with a strong network of other service providers as needed.
