从9月1日起，当学生参加培训项目，省政府提供的培训补贴政策的改革会使得数千全日制学生获得更多资金支持。

: H9 `2 q; O' s7 `就业、移民和工业大臣Iris Evans说：“学生在参加阿尔伯塔省培训项目时，收到政府补贴的同时，可以另外挣更多的钱，无疑受到学生的欢迎。公费资助增加，同时对个人收入不加限制，学生可以获得更多资金保证，鼓励他们更好地完成培训项目，同时保持和劳务市场的关系”

“阿尔伯塔收入支持项目”力度加大，是省长Ed Stelmach提高阿尔伯塔居民生活质量的一部分。政府优先考虑的其它问题是管理增长压力，公正透明执政，构建强大阿尔伯塔以及提供安全安心的社区。

Province helps students earn while they learn

Changes to Income Supports training benefits help thousands of students

Edmonton... Starting September 1, changes to training benefits will help thousands of full-time students receiving income support earn more money while they are attending training programs.

; g! ^4 }( F: J' t"Allowing students to earn more while they learn will be welcome news for students receiving training through the Alberta Works program," said Iris Evans, Minister of Employment, Immigration and Industry. "Both the increased bursary amounts and the unlimited earning potential will help students by providing more resources that ultimately encourage them to successfully complete their program, while remaining connected to the labour market."

/ j; n: L7 Q! I' }1 g8 v/ P4 eThe changes will increase accessibility to full and part-time training by increasing the amount of money students have available to help them meet expenses.

1 m1 ]( a/ F/ EOnce qualified for Alberta Works training, a student's employment income will no longer be a factor in determining their benefit rate. This change will allow thousands of students to supplement their monthly income through work, if they so choose. There are about 20,000 students receiving financial assistance through Alberta Works to attend school in the province.

Previously a student was not eligible for financial assistance if their household had liquid assets more than the amount of the training benefits requested.

* V4 {. T4 O( I" PThe cost of implementing these changes is estimated at $3.2 million. This year, the province will invest almost $300 million to support employment and training programs for Albertans.

Enhancing Alberta's income support programs is part of Premier Ed Stelmach's plan to improve Albertans' quality of life. Other priorities for the government are to manage growth pressures, govern with integrity and transparency, build a stronger Alberta and provide safe and secure communities.
