What is the Vermilion Energy/YWCA Skills Training Centre?
The Vermilion Energy/YWCA Skills Training Centre has a goal to provide our students with jobs that are careers, not simply minimum wage positions. We are always looking for partners who can provide career opportunities and training and skills development that will move women out of poverty. A primary objective of the program is to get women beyond the living wage or poverty line, which the Province of Alberta classifies as between $12,000-$13,000 a year. One of our goals for the program is to grow the number of trainees accepted into the program and to ensure its future sustainability.
