More people in Surrey and the Fraser Valley will be able to pursue careers in physical therapy at a new training space coming to Surrey.

Young adults in Surrey are getting the skills training and employment supports to prepare them for careers as tradespeople and safety technicians in B.C.’s booming construction sector.

People under-represented in B.C.’s growing technology and engineering sectors, including women, Indigenous peoples, immigrants and people with disabilities, will have better opportunities and advancement through new government-supported initiatives.

In September 2019, Simon Fraser University (SFU) students will be able to train, for the first time, in new state-of-the-art facilities for sustainable energy engineering, a program unique to Western Canada.

Students and the tech sector will benefit from thousands of additional tech-related spaces at public post-secondary institutions throughout British Columbia, announced Melanie Mark, Minister of Advanced Education, Skills and Training.

Investments in literacy will give adult learners in Surrey the opportunity to connect with their community, apply for jobs and bond with their children through reading, Minister of Advanced Education, Skills and Training Melanie Mark announced today.
