WEBINAR | How Green Skills are Shaping the Future of Canada’s Skilled Trades

Category: Public Events

Canada faces a critical workforce challenge. With one-third of Red Seal trades already not producing enough certified journeypersons to meet demand — largely due to retirements — the rise of green skills adds another layer of urgency.

How will the shift to a low-carbon economy impact trades already under pressure? What does this mean for skills shortages, training programs, and workforce planning?

Join us for an exclusive webinar exploring CAF-FCA’s latest research on how the demand for green skills is reshaping the skilled trades landscape.

What You’ll Learn:

✔ The trades most affected by decarbonization
✔ How green skills are intensifying existing skills gaps
✔ The implications for apprenticeship and workforce development
✔ Insights to help employers, educators, and policymakers plan for the future
