Skilled Labour Roundtable with Dave Cassidy

As Ontario’s economy accelerates its transition to electric vehicles (EVs) and buttresses its advanced manufacturing, Brampton is positioned to play a leading role. However, this growth is contingent on addressing key challenges, including attracting and developing skilled trades talent, fostering stronger industry-education alignment, and addressing red tape. 

This roundtable will convene local leaders from the automotive, advanced manufacturing, and postsecondary sectors to discuss: 

• Talent acquisition, retention strategies, training and upskilling initiatives 

• Employer-led solutions to enhance Brampton's skilled workforce. 

• Reducing red tape in getting more skilled labour   

The Brampton Board of Trade will be hosting Dave Cassidy, Skilled Trades Special Advisor, to facilitate a discussion with local employers on solutions to addressing labour shortages. 

Roundtable event by invitation only. Please contact Vijai Singh - vsingh@bramptonbot.com
