The completion of this report would not have been possible without the cooperation of countless individuals who contributed their time to discuss challenges and opportunities within the apprenticeship community. The Steering Committee for this study expresses its appreciation to these individuals and organizations for their input and support.
Special thanks and appreciation is expressed to Human Resources and Skills Development Canada for its financial support and contribution to the study. Recognition should be also given to the Board of Directors of the Canadian Apprenticeship Forum – Forum canadien sur l’apprentissage (CAF-FCA) for their efforts in spearheading this initiative.
Finally, thanks to the comprehensive research and analysis conducted by the Canadian Labour and Business Centre (CLBC), and their associated consultants.
