Skills mismatches & finding the right talent

Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:

As the country continues to experience skills shortages in key sectors of the economy, the report describes the country’s growing shortage of highly skilled labour as critical, predicting shortages in the Manufacturing, Automation and Energy and Utility industries. Supporting this view are findings from 32 countries around the world, which reveal that Canadian businesses are reporting serious problems finding the workers they need amidst a growing skills shortage.
