Skills/Compétences Canada is proud to lead the Empowering Women in Trades (EWIT) initiative, a dynamic space designed for young women exploring career opportunities in the skilled trades.

EWIT offers the chance to hear firsthand from tradeswomen and industry leaders who are on site at the Skills Canada National Competition to share their career journeys, provide practical advice and answer questions. Through engaging conversations and hands-on experiences, participants gain insight into what a day in the life of a tradeswoman truly looks like and how these professionals built successful, fulfilling careers.

More than just an event, EWIT is a community, a place where women come together to share knowledge, inspire the next generation and showcase the pride, creativity and financial independence that careers in the trades can offer.
