Inspiring and Engaging Youth
We want to inspire and engage youth to enter and build a career in the trades. We achieve this through in-person presentations, videos, and print and social media materials. Our goal is to inspire young people to join the trades and provide scholarships, equipment, and mentorships.
Developing a Diverse Workforce
We aim to develop a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workforce with the necessary training support to be successful.
