Workforce needs are constantly evolving. Whether your organization is growing, adapting to new opportunities, introducing new technology, or responding to changing market conditions, having the right skills in place is essential.

WorkingNB offers a range of resources and funding opportunities to help New Brunswick employers develop their workforce and build the skills they need for today and tomorrow.

This session is an opportunity to:

  • Learn about workforce funding and supports related to tariff impacts.
  • Understand funding opportunities that may support upskilling and reskilling
  • Explore options for supporting employees through business or market changes
  • Ask questions and discuss your specific workforce needs with WorkingNB
  • Learn about two new funded programs related to Cleantech and Youth in Manufacturing.

If your organization is considering how to build the skills you need today—or prepare your workforce for where your business is going next—this session is worth attending.

Who should attend: NB manufacturing leaders, HR professionals, managers and others involved in workforce planning and development.

Speakers:
George Itoafa & Janet Scott, WorkingNB
