About The Saskatoon Trades & Skills Centre

Established in 2007 as part of a larger effort to breathe new life  into our inner city, the Saskatoon Trades and Skills Centre is a  not-for-profit organization here to equip employers with skilled  workers and equip adults with the skills and jobs they need to start a rewarding career. Hundreds of people have a successful  career today thanks to the training, employment and confidence  they gained here.

About the STSC Program

STSC only puts on a course if employers tell us they have jobs to fill.  Every course ends with a one-week work placement.  If you do well, you get hired!  There are no fees for courses and minimal requirements for STSC courses. To be selected, you must attend an orientation, apply, be interviewed and WANT to  succeed!
