About Us

Industry Advisory Committee

VFITB operates an industry advisory committee which enables us to draw expertise directly from industry in order to provide quality industry-validated advice to government. The primary purpose of the committee is to identify and establish policy positions and advice on key issues with respect to industry and training and to make recommendations to the VFITB Executives. The committee are also encouraged to identify issues and initiate positions relevant to various industry sectors where specific issues arise.

Industry reference groups are formed to act as a source of advice on issues as they arise. Findings are reported to the IACs.

Through active participation, members can help shape and support the skill development needs of the service industries' workforce as well as enhancing personal and professional skills. Please contact VFITB if you would like more information on becoming involved.
