Backgrounder
Today, over 500,000 Canadians are part of the environmental workforce and those numbers are growing every day. Nearly every sector of the Canadian economy now has an environmental component and employs environmental practitioners to ensure that regulations are followed and environmental impacts are kept to a minimum.
ECO Canada is a national, not-for-profit organization that provides a critical link between the environmental industry’s need for qualified practitioners and those looking for career and skills development in this growing area.
Since 1992, ECO Canada has kept its finger on the pulse of the Canadian economy—noting environmental trends, monitoring industry needs, and communicating those needs to educators and governments. Through ongoing research ECO Canada is able to provide resources to assist the environmental sector in its continued growth.
