Volunteers
Volunteers are an essential part of all Skills Canada Nova Scotia programs. We have a variety of volunteer opportunities to choose from, that suit a variety of interests. Each year we are grateful to our volunteers who give their time for SCNS. Some of the roles that volunteers fill are:
Provincial Technical Committee
Each contest area in the Nova Scotia Skills Competition is developed and managed by a Provincial Technical Committee (PTC). This PTC is made up of volunteers who ensure that national standards and industry expectations are met. Some of the tasks that a PTC organizes are:
- A contest area and contest descriptions to identifies the skills that will be tested
- The equipment and materials that will be required
- The number of competitors who will participate
- The system of evaluation, as well as recruiting judging panels, and reporting to SCNS
