At the launch of our Level Up! Career Fairs in Grafton, I joined @edgefactor_ to highlight how we’re opening doors for more young people to discover rewarding careers in the skilled trades. 🛠️

From hands-on experiences with tools and equipment to exploring cutting-edge AI technologies, we’re giving students a firsthand look at how Ontario’s trades are evolving and powering our economy.

Together with partners like Edge Factor, we’re helping more young people turn their passions into lifelong careers, and building a stronger, more competitive Ontario. 💪

Join us in Barrie on October 1 for our second Level Up! career fair of the year.
