Upgrade skills
for better job
opportunities

YQU'RE HAVING trouble fin-
ding a job. You don't qualify for
some jobs because you don't have
the right skills. You've been laid
off through no fault of your own.
Welcome to the mid-1990s,

It used to be that once you had
finished school, you were set for
ife.

Today, rapid changes in tech-
nology and a competitive work
environment mean good jobs are
hard to find.

Ongoing training and upgrading
of job skills are essential if you
want to stay in the game.

“B.C. is moving from a
Tesource base to a knowledge

base,”” says Reg Gates, director |

gencral of Employment and Im-
migration Canada, B.C./Yukon
Region.

“Our workforce needs more
people with highly developed skills
in order for Canada’s economy to
remain Competitive.’’

Recognizing that training is the
key to a skilled and motivated
workforce, the federal government
amended the. Unemployment In-
surance Act in November 1990,
channelling more dollars into
training programs to upgrade the
_Skijls of Canada’s unemployed.

. But, according to Gates, it can't
stop there. ... :

“Individual British Columbians
have got ‘to take. charge of their
future,” says Gates.

“The more you learn, the better
your job future. The better your

’ skills;. the higher your - salary
potential.’’
