Alberta's Occupational Demand and Supply Outlook 2011-2021
Published on January 13, 2012
To better understand and respond to future labour market needs, Human Services has
developed both the Alberta Occupational Demand and Supply Outlook Models. Figure 1
provides an overview of the two models. These models project the demand and supply
for different occupations in Alberta between 2011 and 2021. By calculating imbalances
between demand and supply, future occupational shortages or surpluses can be
forecasted. Results from the two models help users make better decisions about
developing and funding programs and policies as well as personal decisions about
education, jobs and careers.
