Alis publications system is decommissioned
The alis team’s multi-year effort to migrate the information and exercises from its print publications is now complete. The publications are no longer available to order or download from alis.alberta.ca. Instead, visit the Alis Publications Archive, which directs you to the new home of the publication’s information on the alis website. Also, archived PDFs of many of the publications can be found by searching the title on the Alberta open government portal. However, these archived versions no longer have the most current information.
Note that you can still order alis outreach materials, including bookmarks, postcards, and posters.
New Core Skills Exercise in alis' CAREERinsite
The alis team recently launched the first phase of its latest interactive career planning tool: The Core Skills Exercise. This quiz complements the Interests and Abilities Exercises in the Know Yourself section of CAREERinsite. Based on the federal Skills for Success model, the exercise scores your skill level across 9 different skills:
- Adaptability
- Collaboration
- Communication
- Creativity and innovation
- Digital
- Numeracy
- Problem solving
- Reading
- Writing
Currently, the exercise only compares the user’s score against their initial quick assessment. This allows them to identify skills they may be overestimating or underestimating their strength in, and to identify areas to improve on. In the coming months, we'll implement Phase 2 of the exercise and begin using the user’s scores to recommend occupations based on the newly released NOC OaSIS occupational data.
