EHRC Supports 2016 Skills Canada National Competition

March 2 2016

Electricity Human Resources Canada (EHRC) has signed on as a supporting partner of the 2016 Skills Canada National Competition (SCNC), the only national, multi-trade and technology competition for students and apprentices in the country.

Every year, more than 500 young people from all regions of Canada come to SCNC to participate in over 40 skilled trade and technology contests. Students compete at local, regional and provincial/territorial events to gain their place to represent their province/territory at SCNC.

By providing a forum where Canadian youth can compete against each other at the national level, SCNC provides hands-on work experience related to skilled trades and technology careers. The competitions also raise awareness about skilled trades and technology sectors to all Canadian youth and their influencers. Teachers and parents are welcome.

This year, the competition takes place June 5-8 in Moncton, NB. Admission to the Competition is free and it’s open to the public. For more information and to see how you can volunteer at the event, visit http://bit.ly/QxGfyX.
