Economic developers have a key role in in helping Alberta communities build, grow and diversify their economies and this role is more important than ever.
For nearly 50 years, Economic Developers Alberta has had a proven track record of providing its members with leading edge professional development programs, best practice sharing, networking opportunities and other valuable tools to help create thriving communities.
