At Train Alberta, we believe that strong communities are built on strong foundations—and that foundation starts with early learning. Alberta’s Early Learning and Childcare programs are helping to shape brighter futures by empowering childcare professionals to enhance their skills and qualifications. 

Whether you’re a parent, educator, or community partner, here are some powerful facts about Early Learning and Childcare in Alberta—and how we support this growing field through our courses: 

 1. Affordable Childcare That Supports Families 
With childcare centers offering a flat fee of just $25 per day, Alberta’s Early Learning and Childcare programs are easing the financial burden for families. This allows parents to focus on work or education, knowing their children are in a safe and nurturing environment. 

2. More Centers, More Access 
New Early Learning and Childcare centers are opening across Alberta, increasing access and reducing waitlists. These efforts ensure families can find care close to home or work—meeting them where they are. 

3. Inclusive Care for Every Child 
Inclusion is at the core of Early Learning and Childcare. Centers are equipped to support children with a wide range of physical, emotional, and developmental needs—ensuring every child can thrive. 

4. Real-Life Flexibility 
We understand that families have different schedules. Many Early Learning and Childcare centers offer extended or flexible hours, supporting parents who work evenings, weekends, or non-traditional shifts. 

5. Early Learning that Lasts a Lifetime 
These centers provide more than just care—they deliver quality early learning through structured, play-based programs. This supports brain development, social skills, and emotional growth that benefit children in life. 

6. Growing Careers in Childcare 
The expansion of Early Learning and Childcare centres is creating hundreds of meaningful career opportunities. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to upgrade your skills, now is the perfect time to get involved in this rewarding field. 

At Train Alberta, we’re proud to support this vital work by offering courses in Early Learning and Childcare. Whether you're beginning your journey or advancing your career, our programs are designed to help you succeed and make a lasting impact on the lives of children and families.
