Canada invests in skills training for Aerospace sector

The Government of Canada has invested over $39M under the Sectoral Workforce Solutions Program (SWSP) in the Canadian Council for Aviation & Aerospace’s Industry Led Training for the Aviation and Aerospace Sector project. The funding will support the development and evaluation of a new training and certification system for aerospace occupations, including the production of over 2,000 hours of digitized training content for on-the-job training from entry level to full certification. Employers will also be able to use the college educational system and wage subsidies to support on-the-job training and wrap-around supports. The project aims to support the training and upskilling of up to 900 new and current aerospace workers. Newswire Note: Archived stories may contain dead links or be missing source links.
