2016 COMMUNITY EVENT | Find Your Fit

Description

Find Your Fit (FYF) is a B.C.-wide interactive education program that offers students a hands-on way to 

experience WorkBC’s labour market information tools and services. As part of the broader WorkBC 

program, the tour links youth with labour market information tools and services available through

WorkBC.ca. 

The tour offers an interactive and memorable experience for youth as they explore a selection of careers 

in demand in B.C. Guided by trained facilitators, students test out the skills required to work in a range 

of in-demand occupations - including welding, carpentry, accounting and more. Throughout, the tour 

links students with WorkBC.ca so they can continue their exploration at home. 

As part of B.C.’s Skills for Jobs Blueprint, the B.C. government has developed an action plan to meet 

future labour market demands. A big part of that plan is to give young people a clear and seamless path 

right from school through to the workplace through initiatives such as Find Your Fit.

Find Your Fit is designed for youth in grades 6 through 10 who are just beginning to think about a career 

path. It’s also helpful for parents and career counsellors looking for ways to educate and support youth 

in their career exploration, as well as anyone who may be thinking about a career change and are 

unsure of the steps to take/resources available to them.
