Alaska has vast energy resources, resulting in the oil and gas industry dominating the Alaskan economy. More than 80% of the state’s revenues are derived from petroleum extraction. Excluding oil and gas the main export is seafood. Other sectors of major employment include natural resource extraction, shipping transportation and government. Alaskan Department of Labor and Workforce Development expects further growth in the Oil Industry, military spending, and Tourism. Several other industries, including Healthcare and Construction, also remain optimistic about adding jobs.

The following list of free online courses available on Alison.com have been identified by the Alison US Workforce Team as courses which are particularly suited for skills development in Alaska.

According to the US Department of Labor, there has been a 70% growth (2020) in apprenticeships since 2011. Alison has responded to this resurgence with a selection of apprenticeship courses to help job-seekers find suitable employment. One of the main reasons behind the increased popularity is that apprenticeships result in jobs.
