Experience the ABES Difference
Alberta's healthcare leaders don't hire just anyone — they hire ABES graduates. For over 30 years, ABES has been training the skilled professionals that Alberta Health Services, Alberta Precision Laboratories, and CareWest, consistently choose to join their teams.
Today, ABES offers a variety of health care and medical school training programs, recognized by industry. ABES instructors come from years in the field to pass on practical, hands-on experience - built around the real-world needs of Alberta's top healthcare employers.
As a licensed Private Vocational School under the Private Vocational Training Act, ABES offers social services and healthcare training programs designed around one goal: getting you hired. Practicum placement at ABES is guaranteed and included, and our graduate placement rates exceed 94% in most programs. In fact, many students receive their first job offer directly from their practicum placement.
