The Provincial Sheet Metal Workers Training Trust Fund was established in 2001 and is a joint venture between unionized sheet metal workers and their employer counterparts in the industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) sector of Ontario’s construction industry. This agreement was accomplished outside of the negotiation process as recognized project to improve the ability to standardize the expertise of the sheet metal worker.

     The original agreement was entered to provide funds for the development of a specialized state of the art training centre for the trade of sheet metal worker. The endeavor was to train, upgrade and improve the vocational and safety skills of sheet metal workers, in response to industry needs. Secondly the goal was to enhance the employability of workers through training which would facilitate the adjustment to technological changes. As well, there was a gap in the training of Sheeting and Decking sectors of the industry.     

     The joint agreement between both parties illustrates the commitment and understanding that an industry run training centre is viable and creates a benefit to the overall industry.
