The aerospace industry employs some of the best and brightest minds
in Manitoba.
Manitoba is home
to a highly skilled workforce that is nationally recognized for its prairie
work ethic.
Established in 1992, the Manitoba Aerospace Human Resources Co-ordinating
Committee (MAHRCC) assists industry and educational institutions to develop
and deliver training for existing and prospective employees. Partnering
with federal and provincial departments and industry, MAHRCC co-ordinates
secondary and post-secondary students' access to training to meet the
needs of local aerospace companies.
Manitoba has built a highly-sophisticated
training infrastructure that is unparalleled in Canada. Since 1992 the
Federal and Provincial Governments and Industry, in partnership, have
invested over $40 million in Manitoba aerospace training programs. The
results have been remarkable with over 600 courses completed and over
6,000 persons trained.
Responding to the growing needs of local companies such as Aveos, a new facility will provide licensed Aircraft Maintenance
Engineering training.
Employment in the industry is expected to rise steadily for the foreseeable
future.
