Jessica Biga-Wadstein, Canada's country head at Pearson, Valerie Walker, CEO of the Business+Higher Education Roundtable, and Karen Myers, the president and CEO of Blueprint, discuss what's working in Canada's skills ecosystem, where the gaps are, and what policymakers need to prioritize, including reducing costly transition times between learning and work, the need for demand-driven rather than supply-focused training programs, and a national infrastructure for skills and lifelong learning.
This episode is presented in partnership with Pearson.
