Workforce Capacity Across Industries.
Organizations across industries need skilled people, strong leadership and practical pathways for growth. Kaskitew-Maskwa applies its recruitment, workforce strategy and partnership capabilities across sectors, with a particular focus on aviation, aerospace and defence.
Aviation
Aircraft operations, maintenance, ground operations and support functions require people with role-specific skills and clear routes into work. KM brings recruitment and workforce planning together with Indigenous career pathways informed by employer needs.
Indigenous Aviation Pathways is Government of Alberta-approved and launched on October 19, 2026. Program delivery is underway.
Aerospace
KM supports aerospace workforce needs through recruitment, workforce planning and coordination with training partners across manufacturing, engineering, technical operations and supply chains.
Defence & National Security
Technical and leadership recruitment, workforce planning, Indigenous participation and supplier/community partnerships can help connect people with industrial opportunities. KM supports planning and coordination around role-specific requirements.
IndigiSEC is a developing convening initiative intended to bring Indigenous and industry perspectives together around security and workforce opportunities.
Energy & Utilities
KM can map operations and maintenance roles, project workforce demand and succession needs into recruitment priorities and training pathways.
Construction & Infrastructure
Project schedules and skilled-trades demand can benefit from workforce planning, hiring coordination and practical Indigenous participation activities. Applications depend on each project's needs and partners.
Marine & Transportation
Specialized operations, maintenance and logistics roles can call for targeted recruitment and employer-informed training routes. KM's workforce and partnership capabilities can be applied to these needs.
Technology & Digital Industries
Digital, technical and leadership hiring can be supported by skills-gap planning, recruitment and training partner coordination, subject to role-specific requirements.
Manufacturing & Industrial Services
Production, maintenance, engineering and supervisory capacity can be addressed through workforce assessments, recruitment priorities and supplier participation planning.
Transferable Skills & Dual-Use Pathways
Skills developed in civilian industries can connect to defence-related work, and vice versa. Transferability is not automatic: role-specific qualifications, training and any security requirements must be assessed for each opportunity.
