The CWB Association is thrilled to collaborate with Skills/Compétences Canada on a special podcast series. This year, we are excited to interview the Skills Canada Executive Directors from across Canada. Tune in as we explore their skills journey and commitment to promoting skilled trades in their provinces and territories!

Maria Pacella's remarkable 20-year journey as Executive Director of Skills Canada Manitoba offers powerful insights into building pathways for young people to discover careers they never imagined. From her unexpected transition from politics to skills development, Maria has witnessed a profound shift in how society values the trades. When she began, schools reluctantly allowed Skills Manitoba to promote trades education. Today, those same institutions actively seek their guidance, recognizing that trades offer students viable, rewarding career options.
