History:
The Building Trades of Alberta coordinates and promotes the interests of 16 Alberta trade unions whose 75,000 members work in the residential, commercial and industrial construction, maintenance and fabrication industries.

The men and women who comprise the unionized building trades in Alberta are some of the most highly-skilled and safest workers on the planet, as evidenced not only by our productivity and safety records, but by the commitment to education and training. In the past 10 years, Alberta's unionized building trades have invested over half a billion dollars into programs and infrastructure that help ensure our members are on the cutting edge of industry practice. It is this commitment to excellence and our understanding of the value of working in partnership with other industry stakeholders that showcases BTA members as the Skilled Trades Advantage.
