Industry Spotlight Canada

Industry Spotlight Canada's mission is to be a one-stop website portal for education and career planning material for students and educators in Alberta.

About Us

Industry Spotlight Canada is a unique and innovative resource designed to encourage young adults to consider careers in industries that directly affect Alberta's economy.

Our DVDs are authorized by Alberta Education as a learning resource, and are distributed to every high school in the province. They showcase real people working for real Alberta companies, in a variety of positions with different levels of education and training.

We know that DVDs are headed the way of the dinosaur, which is why all of our videos and interactive content are available online. Online learning, coupled with online safety training, gives students access to career opportunities they have never had before.

Industry Spotlight Canada also hopes to be a leader in facilitating video conferencing in Alberta's schools. By connecting students with industry experts, young people now have a direct link to career information and resources to make an informed decision about their futures.

Company History

Industry Spotlight was started in Scotland in 2006 and opened its Canadian office in Edmonton in 2007 with one full time employee and a contracted education liaison.

Currently, Industry Spotlight has one DVD in circulation within Alberta high schools and two new DVDs set to launch in the fall of 2010.

By 2008 Industry Spotlight had four platinum sponsors. Today that number has more than doubled, to nine platinum sponsors, including ATCO, Suncor, Flint Energy and more of Alberta's industry giants.
