Office to Advance Women Apprentices NL

The Office to Advance Women Apprentices in Newfoundland and Labrador works to increase employment opportunities for women in skilled trades by connecting tradeswomen, apprentices, and students with employers, training institutions, and industry partners. Through mentorship programs, wage subsidy initiatives for employers, and networking opportunities, the organization helps women enter and advance in trades traditionally dominated by men. Additional support includes career guidance, job-matching services, workshops for apprentices preparing for Red Seal certification, and scholarships aimed at reducing barriers for women and gender-diverse individuals pursuing trades training.
