Career & Life Skills

Preparing students for career and life skills is an integral part of education. Helping young people develop the knowledge and skills to earn a living wage and become confident, healthy, happy adults is a long-term benefit for the community; EducationMatters’ investments enables schools to offer opportunities and experiences that provide students with the tools they need to find their path to success via career and life skills.

EducationMatters donors fund dual credit & exploratory programs, leadership training, mental health programming and, financial literacy initiatives, just to name a few.

Donate today and help us get this generation of students ready to be the next generation of leaders.

Together, we can create new opportunities for Calgary’s students.

At EducationMatters we believe that education is the cornerstone of our society. In the spirit of reconciliation, recognizing, and thanking our Indigenous friends and neighbours honours their history and builds the conditions of respect for all peoples. EducationMatters board, staff, and volunteers acknowledge that the land on which we gather is the traditional Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot Nations, which include the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai. We also acknowledge the Tsuut’ina and Stoney Nakoda First Nations (including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations).The City of Calgary is also home to Métis Nation of Alberta - Districts 5 and 6. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit who have cared for these lands for generations.
