Education & Training

The local workforce is enhanced by the quality and mix of post-secondary institutions, located in or nearby to Burlington.  Access to these institutions gives the city a leading edge in areas such as applied research, finance and business services, advanced manufacturing, information technology, and life sciences.

Education and training plays a vital role in the Burlington economy. Company partnerships with McMaster University, Mohawk College, and The Centre for Skills Development & Training allow for the development of customized training programs and easy access to co-op students and apprenticeship programs.
