Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Certainly. Currently, the Department of Education, Culture and Employment spends over $2 million on apprenticeship and occupational certification programming. We offer the programming at Aurora College, training on-the-job, technical training, as well as we offer tuition for the theory courses when those have to be taken outside of the Northwest Territories. Mr. Speaker, I think Members are also aware that we are developing new high school curriculum that will assist to get kids into, and be aware of, more opportunities in the trades, and we will continue to develop more and more opportunities and watch this project to see where opportunities might present for us to develop better training for northerners to take advantage of economic opportunity. Thank you.
