Building off our successful UTIP project, SMWTCS received @ $246,500 from the Canadian Apprenticeship Strategy (CAS) – federal funding to facilitate access to trades training using new technologies, particularly targeting green initiatives.
Our new Sheet Metal E.R.T. environmental training project will promote environmental stewardship by training apprentices to reduce, reuse, and recycle sheet metal.
Project goals include:
• Our apprentices will learn to optimize material usage, reduce waste generation, and increase resource efficiency.
• Our training centres will foster a culture of sustainability, where environmental responsibility becomes ingrained in everyday operations and decision-making processes.
