15th Annual Canadian Skills Competition (Skills Canada)

The annual Canadian Skills Competition (CSC) will be held in Waterloo, Ontario from May 20, 2010 - May 23, 2010.

The CSC is an olympic-style skills competition which showcases students' technical and leadership skills. Students participate in practical challenges designed to test skills required in technology and trade occupations.

The philosophy of the skills competitions is to reward students for excellence, to directly involve industry in evaluating student performance and to keep training relevant to employer's needs.  The competitions allow students to access the newest technologies and communicate with industry experts who serve as mentors by showing students that the skills they possess are valuable.
