What is tradeability?

Tradeability.ca is a collaborative effort between community partners in Durham Region.  This local project which has been ongoing since 2003 is led by the Durham Region Local Training Board.  Our goal is to meet current and future market demand for skilled tradespeople in Durham Region and provide a single point of access and referral for information on careers in the skilled trades.

This Employment Ontario project is funded in part by the Government of Canada

Candidate Manager System

The Candidate Manager System is a local and unique on-line job matching tool that is available to both employers and job seekers in Durham Region. Employers will save time because we’ll pre-screen the candidates’ resumes based on the employers’ requirements. Job Seekers (candidates) will save time because they only have to register once. Employers can now contact tradeability.ca directly if they would like us to post their job posting and pre-screen candidates’ resumes. Job seekers can also register with tradeability.ca and have their resumes included in the matching process. Within the next month the option to register on-line will be available for both job seekers and employers.

30 job postings, 19 employers and 156 candidates have been registered in the Candidate Manager System to date. We have candidates looking for opportunities in various trades including: electrician construction and maintenance, general carpenter, sprinkler and fire protection, cabinetmaker, welder, automotive service technician, welder, baker and cook. If you have an opening in one of the apprenticeable trades please contact us.

Watch for more information on the www.tradeability.ca homepage.
