Also during Skills Canada 2019, the top two competitors in each skill area from the 2018 national competition return to participate in the WorldSkills Team Canada Selection Process.
As 2018 was a WorldSkills qualifying year, these competitors now have the opportunity to demonstrate their skills once again and earn a spot among the 31-member Team Canada heading to in Kazan, Russia in August 2019.
VCC is extremely proud of our champions and we wish them all the best in Halifax!
