Your real odds
This grant runs on a first-come, first-served basis until the annual budget is exhausted, so when you apply matters as much as whether you qualify.
Funding is formula-based at 18% of eligible Alberta labour invoices, with a hard cap of $200,000 per organization or affiliated group per budget year, so there is no competitive scoring to navigate. Applying early in the intake window is the straightforward way to avoid the funds running out before your submission is reviewed.
