Organized by: NAIT Office of Apprenticeship — https://www.eventbrite.com/o/69115806513Join us for an evening of networking with women in skilled trades. Meet apprentices, Journeypeople, NAIT instructors, and industry leaders.
Join us for an evening of networking and discovery at the WLBCF Trade Connections Resource Fair! Meet apprentices, journeypersons, NAIT instructors, industry leaders, and representatives of organizations that offer supports to apprentices. Learn about the opportunities that are open to you, discover resources to support you, and find a community of connection and mentorship.
This event breaks from our typical Trade Connections women-in-trades networking events to bring a resource fair to our apprenticeship community! We’re inviting a larger audience to connect, build networks, find mentors, and otherwise build community. With this resource fair, we are inviting folks to come together and find support, and we would love to see you there. There will be opportunities to check out organizations set up at tables and learn about the support they offer, as well as networking with attendees to build your community. This open is open to anyone in the apprenticeship environment – all genders, all levels, apprentices, employers, and educators.
The Women Leading and Building Canada's Future (WLBCF) initiative hosts a friendly and casual environment for women in various skilled trades to share experiences, connect, and expand networks. Note: the resource fair will have a mix of women-focused organizations and organizations that serve larger communities. Eligible apprentices and pre-apprentices can also learn more about the Women Leading and Building Canada's Future supports, in partnership with the Government of Canada's Canadian Apprenticeship Strategy. More information can be found at nait.ca/womenintrades. Funded in part by the Government of Canada's Canadian Apprenticeship Strategy and the Labour Market Partnerships with the Government of Alberta.
Admission is free (registration required).
Light refreshments will be provided.
Participants are responsible for their parking.
Don't miss this opportunity to join the supportive and growing community of inclusion in skilled trades! Community beyond the work site. Let's build it together.
We invite attendees to support NAIT students by bringing a donation for the student association emergency food centre. Non-perishable food items are always appreciated, and we also encourage donations of period products such as pads, tampons, and menstrual cups — essential items, but often overlooked and not accessible to everyone who needs them. You can learn more about the food centre and a list of suggested food donation items here: https://naitsa.ca/student-services/food-centre/
