Government has launched a new Skills Training for Economic Recovery program in order to support people affected by COVID-19 to get access to new training opportunities for high-demand jobs.  

More educational opportunities are on the way for people looking to build careers in the high-demand field of early childhood education and provide high-quality child care to more B.C. families.

An $8.4-million investment in education and training programs will enable people to train for high-demand jobs as health-care assistants caring for B.C.’s seniors.

A new education and training program at Camosun College will enable people to train for high-demand jobs as community mental health workers.
