The Alberta Carpenters Training Centre (ACTC) is affiliated with the Alberta Regional Council of Carpenters and Allied Workers. We are funded by the Alberta Carpenters Training Fund, which in turn, is funded through employer contributions, and of course our members through our collective agreements. We are here to help the members of the UBC in Alberta gain the skillset they need to excel in their field. We have been able to develop and provide one of the most comprehensive and in-depth Industrial Scaffolder Apprenticeship programs in North America, and our dedication to the completion of apprenticeship in all areas of our trade continues today.
The employers and contractors in Alberta recognize the need for a trained, professional, safe workforce. We have trained thousands of UBC members, and plan on training thousands more.
