Labour market information helps residents make decisions about their education, employment or business operations. The Government of the Northwest Territories partnered with the Conference Board of Canada to develop a labour market forecast for the Northwest Territories. This forecast is tied to the Skills 4 Success initiative, which provides information about occupations in demand in the territory.

To see what career your current skills and knowledge can get you, or to explore occupations related to various education programs, try Job Bank's Exploring Careers.
