Job Talks: Innovative Study and Website for Recruitment in the Skilled Trades

This project is a collaboration between George Brown College, the Canadian Apprenticeship Forum, Skills Ontario and Q. I. Value Systems to pursue innovative research to respond to identified gaps in information and communication about the trades. This research will be conducted in George Brown College’s Centre for Business. Through a national survey, recorded interviews and an interactive website called “Job Talks” the project will mobilize a new understanding of tradespeople by allowing the public to interact with the research findings, view videos of passionate tradespeople, and access career information.
