Nova Scotia Skills Competition
The Nova Scotia Skills Competition provides opportunities for youth to explore skilled trades and technologies, enhance their skills, and strive for excellence in a chosen field. It is our signature annual event.
Skills Canada National Competition
The Skills Canada National Competition is the only national, multi-trade and technology competition for students and apprentices in the country. For more information about the Skills Canada national competition, please visit the Skills Canada website.
WorldSkills Competition
Every two years, eligible gold medalists from the Skills Canada National Competition (SCNC) earn the opportunity to partake in the WorldSkills Team Canada Selection Event (WSTCSE). The WSTCSE is used to ensure that the most qualified competitor represents Canada on the World stage in each skill.
