Notes de l'éditeur

  1. About us
  2. About Central Boards, Green Economy research partnership:Collaborated to research and report on Green Economy in three installmentsa. First report, Greening the Economy: Transitioning to New Careers, identified industries and occupations that will be playing a leading role in the GTA in the transition to a green economy and provides guidelines for transitioning workers into those industries and occupations.b. Second report, Transitioning to a Green Economy: The Bottom Line for Ontario’s Businesses contributed 10 case studies and over 100 profiles of occupations affected by the emerging green economyc. Third report, Tending Green Shots, examines the transition to a green economy from the education and training perspectiveNeed to grow green careers :A recent article in the Globe (April 22, “Students seek more fulfilling jobs in green field”)reiterates the growing interest and opportunity arising out of green industry jobs, particularly among youth noting:“Our surveys find that young people are seeking out specialized green education programs because they want to make the world a better place,” Mr. Trump says.And it helps that the training can lead to solid employment. Its study found that the number of Canadians who work as environmental specialists has risen close to 700,000 today from about 250,000 10 years ago, and that about 2.2 million Canadian workers perform environmental activities for at least part of their time on the job.This articles parallels similar discussions we continue to have with Green Industry experts, who indicate new opportunities will continue to emerge beyond the original talent pool of engineers, architects and interior designers. As a result, green industry awareness, education, and training programs are targeting a wide range of employment sectors, starting with real estate, skilled trades and construction management.For Toronto, transitioning in green careers remains a workforce development priority given that numerous opportunities to develop “green” skills will expand with support of the City of Toronto’sinvestments in the green economy through such programs as Tower Renewal, Live Green, EnergyRetrofit Assistance Program and Partners in Project Green.
  3. Trade, Utilities & Construction, are being driven by renewable energy and urban development project. The need for new homes has resulted in more interest in “green construction” and the number of buildings that meet LEED (Leading Environmental Efficiency Design) Gold Standard certification jumped from April 2011 to March 2012 by 88%. Toronto is Canada’s leading city in constructing LEED-certified buildings. The creation of thousands of new construction jobs is anticipated in Toronto with the start of several large projects, including work on the 2015 Pan American Games and the expansion and modernization of Toronto’s transit system.Manufacturing, may be the industry most affected by the emergence of the green economy in terms of both direct and in direct jobs. Manufacturing plants that are “going green” are creating new demand for managers, engineers, laborers, operators and material handlers who are green specialist. As well the increase in alternative energy has placed new demands for the manufacturing of wind turbines(mostly manufactured outside in Greater Toronto Area)Retail Trade, is being driven by the consumer demands for green products/services. In particular, the retail food industry (which is tied with food & beverage manufacturing) is being driven by consumer demands for local, organic, ethnic food accompanied by eco-friendly packaging.
  4. Many employers are pursuing greening initiatives because it is a “triple bottom line”: inspired by the greater good, demand from consumers for green products/practices, and increasing number of government incentives for greening(as well as regulations and legislation that require it)
  5. As we transition to a green economy there is a shift from traditional jobs to new jobs that require new skills.In effort to bridge the KSAO gap, the third installment in Green Economy Series “Tending Green Shoots” identified what types of education and training programs are available and what typology of skills (primary & secondary) are developed to help job seekers access and integrate into emerging green careers.
  6. A broad range of skills and knowledge are needed for job seekers to take advantage of the numerous employment opportunities arising within the green economy. Green skills can range from knowing how to plant and care for a garden, to conducting cutting edge research in renewable energy technologies, to understanding one’s impact on the environment when leaving the light on in vacant rooms.Major findingsThis report demonstrated a multitude of groups and organizations contributing to efforts towards sustainable practices. These programs target the full range of audience, from children and students, to low-skilled labour to highly skilled professionals. Green Skills Training providers continue to respond to the need of the marketplace to move quickly and develop training content.Formal training is delivered by education and training bodies and professional associations. While informal green skills building programs are delivered by local community agencies. The vast majority of informal/soft skill building programs are provided at vey low or no costs, while many formal skill training programs take considerable financial resources and time.
