Calgary, AB, November 20th, 2025: ECO Canada is proud to announce the launch of ECOWorks Career Fair, Alberta’s first in-person green hiring fair, designed to connect environmental employers with top-tier talent across the province.
The 2025 Calgary Career Fair will take place on November 27, 2025, at Mount Royal University’s Ross Glen Hall, bringing together professionals, students, and newcomers passionate about sustainability and the green economy.
With over 200 attendees expected, ECOWorks will feature organizations from the Energy sector—including Cleantech and Hydrogen—and highlight subsectors such as Environmental Goods and Services and environmentally-forward industries like Petroleum, Renewables, Nuclear, Smart Homes, Energy Efficiency, and Electric Vehicles.
With funding support from the Government of Alberta, this event is free for job seekers, removing financial barriers for new Canadians, recent graduates, and mid-career professionals.

Under the Workforce Partnerships Grant Program, the Government of Alberta has committed to supporting this unique initiative titled C-NER-Gs: Cultivating and Nurturing Employer Readiness for Green Growth.
