In this episode of Major Convos, we sit down with Farid, the Director of Business
Development for an Electrical Training Organisation in British Columbia, Canada. We flew Farid over to Australia to share his expertise and insights from their Mentorship Matters Program to pilot our own here at Major Training. The boys discuss the importance of finding opportunities to add value in training systems and dive deep into the synergies between the Canadian and Australian markets, uncovering shared challenges such as skilled labor shortages and the crucial role supervisors play in guiding apprentices to completion. Mentorship is at the heart of apprentice success, and Farid highlights how both countries can learn from each other to improve their support systems.
We also explore the future of the electrical industry and how Australian apprentices may have an advantage by earning while they learn. Plus, we swap notes on how trade schools operate differently across the globe. Don't miss this thought-provoking conversation packed with practical insights for the next generation of tradespeople!
