Edge Factor is encouraging students and job-seekers across North America to discover the power of apprenticeships! During November, we are equipping educators, industry, and workforce leaders with high-impact tools to showcase apprenticeable careers and promote apprenticeship training programs with our Apprenticeship Toolkit.
On both sides of the US-Canadian border, governments are funding companies and encouraging them to host apprenticeships so they can build their workforce, provide hands-on training, and help apprentices complete their certification. Apprenticeships benefit employers by bridging the existing skills gaps, as apprentices learn what they need to succeed in their chosen field.
“Apprenticeships merge on-the-job training with classroom learning, making it an ideal way for students and job-seekers to gain the skills they need to be successful in their career,” said Jeremy Bout, Founder and President of Edge Factor. “The unique relationship shared between apprentices and trainers is built on growth, sharing of knowledge, and personal development. In the many apprenticeship programs that we have learned about, we’ve heard time and time again that apprentices become journeypersons with better safety performance, greater overall productivity, and fewer mistakes. It’s a rewarding training and career pathway for anyone to take.”
This year we will be sharing media and tools for families, educators, and industry leaders to explore for FREE online. The Apprenticeships Toolkit includes inspirational stories, Virtual Workplace Experiences, Career Profile videos, and Soft Skills media for students and families to discover.
