It’s a joint effort between the Dais research Team at Toronto Metropolitan University and the NL Workforce Innovation Centre (NLWIC).

She McLennon says one these pathways have been identified work can be done to upskill and train workers for the new economy. Faculty Researcher Alexsandra Stefanovic-Chafe says the project actually tests a job transitions model developed by a research think tank of the Dais at the university.
