Future skills

New and emerging technologies have an effect on every aspect of Canadians’ lives, including the workplace. Automation, artificial intelligence, robotics and clean tech are some of the many technologies that are changing the skills needed to succeed at work. These changes will also impact the way people develop skills and their ability to adapt and take advantage of new opportunities. Future Skills is part of the Government’s plan to ensure that Canada’s skills development policies and programs are prepared to meet Canadians’ changing needs.
