Overview
Education policy in this area concerns the pathways between learning and productive work — apprenticeships, skilled-trades education, and practical training for young people and adults.

Policy initiative
Education, Training, Skills Development, Colleges and Universities
Canada should expand apprenticeships, skilled-trades education, and practical training for young people and adults.
With major nation-building and infrastructure projects ahead, residents should have clear pathways into the trades and technical careers the country requires. Education should connect schools, colleges, universities, employers, and job sites so that training leads more directly to productive and well-paid work.
Investing in domestic skills ensures that the people building Canada's future are the people who live here.
