Skills Canada National Competition
Started in 1994, the Skills Canada National Competition (SCNC) remains the only event of its kind in Canada. It is the only national, Olympic-style, multi-trade and technology competition for young students and apprentices in the country.
Every year, the event brings together approximately 500 young people from all regions of Canada, along with their parents and advisors, to compete in over 40 trade and technology areas. The competition provides an opportunity for young Canadians studying a skilled trade or technology to be tested against exacting standards and against their peers from across the nation.Students vie to win the honour of being crowned the best in their chosen discipline.
The SCNC is the main step in selecting the members of Team Canada for the WorldSkills Competition that is held every two years. The 2010 SCNC was the qualifying year for WorldSkills London 2011.
The journey to the SCN is a long one for many students as they must compete at local, regional and provincial/territorial events to gain their place to represent their province/territory at the SCNC.
