Why Upskilling & Reskilling Matter

Roles are evolving, technology is advancing, and expectations are higher than ever. To keep up, businesses need talent that’s ready to grow. That’s where upskilling and reskilling come in. When you empower people with the right training at the right time, you boost retention, strengthen teams, and build a workforce that’s equipped for whatever comes next. Numbers say it all!

  • 73.7% of small Canadian businesses report skills gaps.
  • $889 CAD – what the average employer spends per employee on L&D.
  • 65% of employers have a plan to reskill for the future.
  • 375 million global workers could need new roles by 2030 (McKinsey).
