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