Building a Green Construction Workforce in Toronto

Building Up will develop and implement a 16-week pre-apprenticeship training program that will equip participants with low-carbon construction and retrofit skills. Through the program, participants will gain competencies in green construction practices related to efficient building enclosures and the installation of low-carbon heating, cooling and ventilation systems. Designed for individuals who face barriers to employment in the trades industry, participants will receive both in-class instruction and on-site experience, in addition to support securing employment upon graduation.
