Helping Canadians get back to work: effective skills-training approaches for a post-pandemic recovery

Canada should explore the adoption of sector-based and career pathways models and invest in testing and scaling up those models that show the most promise.

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s April budget promised to create 500,000 new training and work opportunities over the next five years. Government-sponsored training programs are sometimes viewed with skepticism, but such programs can be effective provided they are closely aligned with local employer needs, write Karen Myers, Simon Harding, and Kelly Pasolli.
