The Ontario government is boosting funding to the Skills Development Fund Training Stream to the tune of $260 million.
The province made the announcement last week and it’s aimed at tackling a labour shortage.
The fifth round of the SDF Training Stream opens July 29 “to address challenges for recruiting, training and upskilling workers for in-demand sectors such as manufacturing, construction and technology.”
“Organizations eligible for funding include employers, employment service, training providers, labour unions, community organizations, business and industry organizations, municipalities, hospitals, Indigenous Band offices, Indigenous skills and employment training agreement holders and service system managers,” the province said.
