Manitoba Skills, Talent and Knowledge Strategy

Skills, talent and knowledge are key to Manitoba's future prosperity. Competitiveness and economic growth depend on a skilled, resilient and adaptable workforce. Growing Manitoba's Economy identified skills, knowledge, creativity and talent development as one of the eleven drivers of economic growth.

The Economic Growth Action Plan announced the creation of a new Skills, Talent and Knowledge Strategy to ensure the province has the right skills, knowledge and talent to enable a thriving economy now and in the future. It will provide:

•strategic direction to support the post-secondary education system

•partnerships to improve job creation under the Manitoba Works 40,000 Jobs Plan

•student outcomes aligned with an ever-changing labour market

The strategy will build on information gathered from past consultations related to the labour market and economy, and provide new opportunities for stakeholder input. Please take a few moments to share your thoughts on how we can create the skilled and adaptable workforce needed for Manitoba to compete and succeed on the global stage.
