Department: Geography",TP-471,2004,"Not available","Haliburton County","Youth apprencticeship programs and employment readiness",,"The purpose of this project is to examine youth in Haliburton County with respect to their employment readiness needs in terms of training and apprenticeships in the trades. Surveys and interviews conducted with students, government agencies, high school staff, and non-profit agencies form the basis of a qualitative analysis.
A literature review of apprenticeship programming both local and far-reaching introduces the subject and is followed by a detailed description of the research methodology employed. Results are presented organized around a demographic profile, youth perceptions of trades, and possible barriers to programming. Details of services and programs available to youth interested in apprenticeships are documented. A discussion of results and recommendations both for youth and community conclude the paper.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"apprenticeship,community,Economic Studies,employment,Social and Health Studies,youth",,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0
"Opportunities for youth to apprentice in the trades","Murphy, Ashley","Economic Diversification Committee
Host contact: Babbs, Trevor","Brunger, Alan
Department: Geography",TP-472,2004,"not available","Haliburton County","Apprenticeship and training opportunities in the trades",,"Arising from a concern that Haliburton has one of the highest unemployment rates in the province, this research sets out to provide information about apprenticeships and training opportunities in the trades to youth and employers, and to provide them with employment options in their home community.
The research was conducted over the 2003-2004 academic year and begins with a literature review of employment opportunities offered on an international, national, provincial, and county scale. Primary research, collected through telephone surveys with local employers, sets out to determine: what employers know about apprentice programs in the trades, which businesses currently offer such opportunities, what barriers exist to such programming, and what employers are looking for in apprenticeship training. Results are presented and analyzed and recommendations proposed to better facilitate such training programs.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"apprenticeship,Economic Studies,employment,Social and Health Studies,social determinants,youth",,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0
