Students from Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon from the Peel District School Board will gather this week to show off their skills.
The Peel Skills Challenge (PSC) is a board-wide event that allows students to design, build, code and compete in hands-on challenges exploring skilled trades and technology, and future career pathways.
Across two days, students will take part in 10 competitions daily, exploring fields such as 3D animation, construction, design innovation, green energy, robotics, LEGO mechanics, technology challenges, TV and video production, and workplace safety. The goal is to encourage practical learning while helping students develop essential global competencies such as creativity, teamwork and real-world problem-solving skills.
“With Canada facing a growing demand for skilled trades professionals, the Peel Skills Challenge helps spark early interest in trades, STEM and technology careers while giving students the opportunity to explore their strengths in a dynamic, hands-on environment,” reads a statement by the school board.
The competition takes place on March 10 and March 11 at Sheridan College in Brampton.
