4th annual WHERE Challenge starts now!
(Toronto, Ontario) – After receiving rave reviews from hundreds of participating Canadian teachers and students, the WHERE Challenge is back for its fourth year! The national contest is endorsed by the Canadian Earth sciences community and led by Mining Matters. The Challenge is designed to ultimately attract young people to the field of Earth sciences. As many of you know, both the Mining Industry Human Resources Council and Petroleum Human Resources Council of Canada are predicting a crippling shortage of talent in the coming years. It's forecasted that tens of thousands of workers will be needed to fill jobs in specialties including geology, engineering, environmental sciences, technology and skilled trades over the next 10 years.
