Join us for an informative webinar where we break down powerful funding programs designed specifically for the manufacturing sector: BC Youth in Manufacturing Initiative, WILWorks Skilled Trades in Advanced Manufacturing, WILWorks Post Secondary, Empower3D, HerJourney, and Learning Differences, offered through EMC. Most of these programs offer substantial wage subsidies and training support for hiring youth, students, and recent grads, helping you build your talent pipeline while reducing employment costs.

- How to access up to $7000 for hiring eligible youth
- Steps to apply and qualify for both programs
- Real-world examples of how BC manufacturers have benefited from these programs
