Chef de la direction de Skills\/Comp\u00e9tences Canada (SCC), Shaun Thorson est un d\u00e9fenseur infatigable des carri\u00e8res des m\u00e9tiers sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9s et des technologies aupr\u00e8s des jeunes Canadiens. \u00c0 la t\u00eate de SCC depuis 2006, il a occup\u00e9 divers postes au sein du bureau national de l’organisation. Avant de se joindre au bureau national, il a travaill\u00e9 pendant huit ans \u00e0 Skills Canada Alberta en tant que gestionnaire de projet, puis comme directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral. Il est conscient du r\u00f4le important que joue une main-d’\u0153uvre forte et dynamique des m\u00e9tiers sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9s et des technologies dans la pr\u00e9servation du leadership \u00e9conomique mondial du Canada. Ainsi, il encourage la collaboration avec des leaders d’opinion afin de garantir l\u2019utilisation de pratiques exemplaires et le meilleur positionnement possible.<\/p>\n

\u00ab Si je n\u2019\u00e9tais pas \u00e0 Skills\/Comp\u00e9tences Canada, je travaillerais probablement dans le soudage, la menuiserie, l\u2019usinage CNC ou bien en tant qu\u2019architecte infonuagique, car je suis un passionn\u00e9 de technologie. \u00bb<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Pendant les Olympiades canadiennes des m\u00e9tiers et des technologies, Shaun aime observer la derni\u00e8re heure du concours Am\u00e9nagement paysager, en particulier le rythme effr\u00e9n\u00e9 des concurrents et des concurrentes qui font leur possible pour terminer \u00e0 temps. Il aime aussi voir le travail d’\u00e9quipe fonctionner \u00e0 pleine capacit\u00e9. Pendant son temps libre, il regarde tout ce qui touche au sport et s\u2019emploie \u00e0 rester actif en pratiquant le v\u00e9lo ou la course \u00e0 pied ou en frappant quelques balles sur un terrain de squash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
