SUMMARY:The Canadian Advantage: Building the Workforce for a National Retrofit Boom
DESCRIPTION:Canada has the buildings\, expertise\, and urgent need to scale retrofits — but do we have the workforce ready to deliver? \nAs governments and industry accelerate investment in building electrification and retrofit programs\, workforce readiness has become one of the biggest challenges facing Canada’s building transition. \nJoin leaders from Toronto 2030 District and BOMA Canada for a national conversation on the talent\, training\, and practical know-how required to support a large-scale retrofit economy. \nThis webinar will explore:\n1. Lessons from successful heat pump and building retrofit training initiatives\n2. Role of unions and skilled trades organizations\n3. Barriers facing building owners and property managers\n4. Workforce gaps across the retrofit ecosystem\n5. How Canada can build the labour capacity needed to support a national retrofit buildout \nThe discussion comes at a critical moment\, following the federal government’s recent nationwide workforce and skilled trades announcement focused on growing Canada’s training capacity and accelerating major infrastructure and retrofit projects. \nPerfect for:\n– building owners\n– property managers\n– policymakers\n– educators\n– retrofit practitioners\n– unions and trades organizations\n– sustainability professionals \n📅 Jul 8\, 2026 \n⏰ 10:00 AM PST | 1:00 PM EST \n🔗 Registration link: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_wA5ySUPtSJqIxAY0GbAtyQ
