Historic Investment: Strengthening trades training with $241 million in provincial funding
The B.C. government has announced a historic $241 million investment in skilled trades training over three years to expand training capacity, reduce waitlists and better support apprentices throughout their training journey.
For the sheet metal trade, this investment will help strengthen training delivery, provide greater support for apprentices progressing toward certification, and ensure training keeps pace with industry workforce needs. It also represents an important investment in the capacity of schools such as SWMTCS to continue delivering high-quality, industry-driven technical training and preparing the skilled sheet metal workforce B.C. needs.
