Learning From One Another: Building a Stronger Skills Development Landscape in Nunavut, Northern Ontario, and Yukon

Press Release

October 21, 2024

Nunavut, Yukon, and Northern Ontario need more skilled workers. This impact paper looks at approaches to training and skills development to identify what is working and how gaps are being addressed.

Skilled trades are a priority and among the top occupations in demand in Nunavut, Northern Ontario, and Yukon between 2024 and 2045; meeting this demand remains a persistent concern.

Which type of organizations play a key role in sustaining Northern trades? What are the factors that impede Indigenous and Northern students from working in the trades even after they’ve participated in training programs? What plans are in the works that will allow for sustaining training, collaboration, and reduction in duplication in skills development services?

Read the impact paper for a look at three programs that are making a difference, and an analysis of more services and approaches that could meet the demand for skilled trades in Canada’s North.
