<strong>Essential</strong> <strong>Skills</strong> and the Northern Oil and Gas Workforce Final Report and Resource Guide<br />
These skills are important for helping people to perform their jobs, from acquiring<br />
knowledge and adapting to changes in workplace requirements, to retaining employment<br />
and moving from one job to another. They help people to work safely, and to fulfill their<br />
potential at work, at home and in the community.<br />
In reviewing your agenda for the next three days, I can see that you are going to have<br />
many opportunities to learn from each other, to discuss the value of integrating essential<br />
skills into training programs and to review the preparation of workers for employment. I also<br />
noted the list of attendees for this event and I am impressed by the breadth of<br />
representation from industry, Aboriginal governments, educators, labour and nongovernment<br />
organizations.<br />
Please accept my best wishes for a successful and enjoyable event. I look forward to seeing<br />
the outcomes of this workshop.<br />
