Labour Market Information Centres

Alberta's LMICs are multi-media resource centres with an extensive range of career and employment related print and electronic resources and information to help make career, learning and work decisions.

LMICs also include access to Career Cruising: an interactive career guide to help you explore career options, make education decisions and track your progress. Located in Alberta Service Centres and Canada-Alberta Service Centres across the province, LMICs have books, magazines, newspapers, software and audio/video materials about:

• occupations
• education programs (post-secondary, private providers, apprenticeship)
• job search techniques
• industry specifics
• career planning
• education planning
• life planning (e.g. personal management, financial planning)

• labour market trends and forecasts

Staff at LMICs will also provide:

• guided assistance to find, use and understand materials
• information and referral to department programs, including workshops and career and employment counselling
