Non-profit housing developments can do more than build homes, they can build the workforce needed to deliver them.

Join the Housing Construction Council and Nova Scotia Non-Profit Housing Association to explore how integrating workforce training into housing projects creates skilled trades pathways, strengthens project delivery, and supports long-term sector growth.

This workshop will feature a real-world case study with New Dawn Enterprises and provide practical insights into how this model can work in your community.

This interactive workshop explores how non-profit housing providers can address two urgent challenges at once: increasing housing supply and strengthening the skilled trades workforce.

Through a collaborative model led by HCC and NSNPHA, housing developments can become active training sites, providing paid, structured learning opportunities while advancing construction projects.

In This Session, Employers Will:

  • Learn how workforce-integrated housing models work
  • Explore a case study with New Dawn Enterprises
  • Understand key stages from planning to construction
  • Identify opportunities to apply this model locally

Ideal for:

  • Non-profit housing providers
  • Developers and project managers
  • Workforce development organizations
  • Municipal and sector stakeholders
