In addition, due to their financial support, SCC is proud to recognize DEWALT as an Official Sponsor of the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Following SCNC, the tools used during the event are donated to eligible schools in the province in which SCNC is held through the DEWALT Tool Enhancement Program. This valuable tool collection is distributed among chosen schools through an application process. The tool package includes a variety of Stanley hand tools and DEWALT power tools such as cordless power tools, miter saws, scroll saws, and accessories. Six local schools have annually received equipment for use in their trade and technology programs since the inception of this partnership. The Tool Enhancement Program has proven to be a lasting legacy for the provinces in which the national competition is hosted.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to their support of the Skills Canada National Competition, Stanley Black &amp; Decker\u00a0has become involved as a\u00a0WorldSkills Team Canada Gold Level Supplier.<\/p>\n<p>This partnership continues to grow and benefit young Canadian tradespeople prior to, during, and after the competition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-76403-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-76403-1-0\"
