Crucible Furnace.

www.simt.co.uk/abbeydale-industrial-hamlet
The Crucible Furnace at Abbeydale is the only one of its kind in the world which still survives intact. It was built in around 1830, and supplied the works with quality steel for tool-making. The building also houses a Pot Shop, where clay crucible pots were made for the furnace, and a Charge Room where the ingredients for the steel were prepared and weighed. Temperatures in the crucible furnace reached 1600°C and the strength of the 'puller out', who lifted the weight of molten steel from the furnace was legendary. The 'teemer' was also a highly skilled worker, carefully pouring the steel into ingot moulds with strength and precision.
Abbeydale Works is an integrated site for the production of steel tools. Dating from c1714, it was mainly built in the period 1785-1830, and remained in continuous use until 1933. It is of outstanding importance as an example of this type of industrial plant and its characteristic design.

Alberta’s government and Calgary's TELUS Spark Science Centre are joining forces to get young people excited about pursuing a career in the trades.
As Alberta’s economy continues to grow, so does the demand for skilled tradespeople, highlighting the need for innovative approaches to apprenticeship education. There are more than 60,000 registered apprentices in the province, representing a 28 per cent increase over this time last year as demand for skilled workers rises.
To support innovative approaches to highlighting the trades, Alberta’s government is investing almost $900,000 in funding announced Minister of Advanced Education Rajan Sawhney on July 31, 2024, to the TELUS Spark Science Centre in Calgary.
The funding will help create a series of exploration spaces designed to encourage young people to pursue a career in the trades. The spaces will educate youth about trades-based science concepts in a fun and engaging way. There will be hands-on activities related to carpentry, plumbing and electrical trades.
The funding from Alberta’s government will support the BLUprint space, which stands for “Building, Learning and You”. This name encompasses the skilled trades and Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) education.
Phase 1 of the exploration spaces soft-launched on July 11 and is now open to the public. Albertans of all ages are invited to come and explore the outdoor space and take part in activities related to skilled trades exploration.
Phase 2 will launch in December and includes indoor exhibits that will delve into the trades using a blend of virtual reality job simulators and hands-on activities to meet the interest of kids of all ages. (photography by Chris Schwarz/Government of Alberta)

This is a reminder of the stunning Lanterns we saw in 2014 at Longleat. We would highly recommend you go and see these huge works of art which has taken many months of planning.
A team of 100 highly skilled workers from Zigong, in China’s Sichuan province have spent six months creating the giant structures which make up the 1000’s of lanterns for Longleat’s Festival of Light. A staggering 30 tonnes of steel, 15km of silk and dazzling 40km of LED lights have been assembled to create a Christmas spectacle.

Even though used for passengers (up to six), the Station Wagon was classified as a commercial vehicle. In the 1930s, they weren’t family haulers. They shuttled people back and forth, often from a train station to a resort hotel, just as wagons were used in the horse-drawn era - thus, a “station wagon.” But buyers found many more used for this versatile vehicle.
The wood bodies - “woodies” - were handmade by skilled workers in Iron Mountain, Michigan, out of birdseye maple from the Upper Peninsula. At 3,020 pounds, this was the heaviest Ford car in 1936.

To come to Canada as a skilled worker, you can choose from well over a hundred different pathways. There are economic streams provided by the federal government in addition to those provided by Naz Law and other provinces. If you want to study or work in Canada, or if you want to immigrate here under the family or humanitarian class, you have over one hundred other options to choose from. This diversity generates a lot of space for confusion and annoyance, but it also opens up a lot of amazing opportunities for future Canadians and other nationals from other countries.

"The building next door is getting higher and higher, but they don’t have any protection on their site. It made me imagine what it would be like to work there. You can see that it’s high and that there are iron poles coming from the ground that could seriously hurt you if you fell on them.
I’ve worked in construction for five years and I am a skilled worker. My skills are measuring and planning to ensure the parts of buildings all fit together and the correct size and materials are used. Because of my skills, I am paid more than most construction workers, but still not the same as men who have the same role as me. Like most workers, I started off unskilled and I was taught more on the job."

AGAINST BONDAGE: THE STRUGGLE FOR WORKERS' ) .

How can a family survive in Delhi on 65 rupees a day? On 14th November 2006, fifteen construction workers .
approached JNUSU with the complaint that instead of the 70 rupees they had been promised, they were being .
forced to accept 65 rupees a day. The legal minimum wage for Delhi is Rs. 127.40 per day! The very next day, the .
contractors threw these fifteen workers out of work, also refusing to pay them any money for work done in November. Faced with non-payment of minimum wages on campus, JNUSU decided to step in. So as to determine the extent .
of the violations, we undertook a detailed survey at construction sites on campus. But as word reached the contractors, they threatened the workers into silence and obstructed the survey teams. Everywhere we saw an no muster rolls were found nor were there any creche for the .
absence of basic facilities like drinking water, .
workers' children. .
The issue at hand is part of a larger malaise: of the condition of the unorganized sector in our country today. .
Though they constitute over 90% of the total working populace, they possess no job security, no pension, no benefits or medical facilities. Back in Chattisgarh, there is little work in their villages and most own barely half a bigha of land. And, there are debts that mount and expenses to be paid -the marriage of children, medical .
treatment, the repairs of houses submerged in monsoon floods. In the city, they move from place to place, uprooted will, dependent on their daily wages for survival..
at the contractors' .
On 22 November, JNUSU representatives met with JNU administration, emerging with a list of promises. We were .
.
promised that the workers would be reinstated and arrears would be paid to them. All contractors would be made .
to pay minimum wages. Muster rolls would be ensured at worksites and supervision of payments would take .
place. In addition, medical and toilet facilities would be provided to the workers and creche facilities extended to .
their children. We think that a victory of sorts has been achieved, and students and workers celebrate together. .
.
But within a day, administration goes back on its word. Since they dared to take a stand, not only are these fifteen workers refused wor~<. but they were also threatened in ott:er ways. They an~ told the othei·l 00 workers at the site on j -:ever fa~se allegaf.:.ns against them. So as to prevent a .

.
they spear. af deJ:ressed 'Nages_und the coercion -of tne contractors. Their chfldren have no warm clothes and at .
.
night, mist drips through the roofs of their jhuggis. .
On the 27th, as work is in progress at the SPS site, a woman is injured but sent away without adequate medical .
attention. This angers the workers who say they will not work until their legal entitlements are provided to them. .
.
The contractor, Jialal Malhotra, uses this opportunity to close work at the site. This is a clear case of coercion, .
.
since all these workers are dependent on their daily wages. Most have worked for only a week, and have as yet .
.
received no payment. Faced with looming food insecurity and the approaching winter, JNUSU decides to set up a .
.
community kitchen. We receive overwhelming support from several quarters: mess workers [who kickstart the .
.
kitchen], Mamu, Shombhu and Teflas Canteens [for lending us vessels], JNU Security [for daily transport of food .

On 2 December, Malhotra finally agrees to make wage payments for the SPS site. But the wait has proved too .

~' Though he sends payments, Malhotra is not accountable to those who left. In the morning, officials from CPWD arrive, and sit clustered around a table, while outside the workers wait for their names to be called. The muster roll is clearly fabricated: many names are absent, lesser days of work were recorded, and skilled workers were paid at unskilled rates. As a result, JNU Engineering department is made to seize this document in the presence of representatives from JNUSU and JNUTA. Till date, the remaining payments for this site have not been .
made. .
Following a unanimous all-party call, a protest-demonstration is called and a delegation meets the rector to .

Attending the EuroSkills Budapest Conference on 27 September 2018, EUROCHAMBRES President Christoph Leitl underlined the importance that education and training is in tune with the skills needs of the private sector.
As the economy evolves faster than ever due to technological breakthroughs, curricula content and the way it is delivered must prepare young people for emerging new opportunities and enable them to adapt to future needs that cannot yet be predicted.
The last edition of EUROCHAMBRES’ annual economic survey of over 50.000 businesses across Europe revealed a lack of skilled workers one of the greatest challenges. This is in line with a longer term trend, as the skills mismatch issue has been a problem for several years, in times of both high and low unemployment. “We have more graduates than ever in Europe and incredibly talented young people entering the labour force. But what good is this if they cannot find work and employers cannot find staff with the right skills? We must do better in ensuring that education prepares young people for current and emerging employment opportunities”, President Leitl said.
Euroskills plays an important role in addressing this persistent skills mismatch across Europe by showcasing the professional skills sought by many employers across a wide range of sectors. It is also based on a pan-European approach, which Chambers consider an important element in matching supply and demand. “Employers, policy-makers and educators must work together to ensure that vocational education is perceived by young people as a positive option that opens up excellent career opportunities and offers an international perspective. Euroskills is a fantastic way to do this”, President Leitl stated.
Professional training must be dynamic, not static
A World Economic Forum report this month set out how the labour market is set for radical changes as technological advances and artificial intelligence accelerate. President Leitl argued that this underlines the need for reforms: “The economy is evolving faster than ever, but unfortunately our education and training systems generally are not keeping up. Curricula must adapt based on feedback from the economy and so must the way in which curricula is taught. As well as acquiring technical skills, young people need transversal skills that will allow them to adapt throughout their career”.
EUROCHAMBRES calls in particular for the development of more effective vocational training and apprenticeship schemes in many member states, for the closer involvement of businesses in the design of curricula and for more dynamic and interoperable skills forecasting tools to be developed across Europe.

Radical Aspirations of the Working Class: Where Do CPI(M)-SFI REALLY Stand? .
"Now, we feel there were serious mistakes. It has sent wrong messages to every part in the country and in other countries. Therefore, when we are changing, we tell out trade union leaders look we just cannot repeat our past mistakes... there should be harmonious relations between management and workers. Otherwise, we cannot advance." -West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, At the Confederation of Indian Industries (CII) meeting in Kolkata on September 17, 2007 .
"We are trying to change the mindset of workers. We need FDI, we need infrastructure." -Buddhadeb Bhattacharya .
Two days back, the streets of Delhi saw a massive demonstration of the working class at the call of several trade unions. Soon after this, responding to a comment by an AISA activist on Facebook, SFI has chosen to hurl allegations against AISA and CPI(ML) Liberation. To begin with, one wonders why SFI would respond with such venom to a left activist's comment wishing that the working class should uphold a radical banner and radical agenda. Why did SFI assume that the statement was targeted at them? After all, there were other trade unions too (including INTUC, affiliated to the Congress) in the rally, and the comment on Facebook did not mention any party. .
The reason is clear: the SFI-CPI(M) knows full well that it has betrayed the interests of the working class so many times that they get afraid at any reference to a "radical" banner. The above quoted statements of their own chief minister shows what they really think and do. They themselves know too well that they do not subscribe to any radical agenda. This is the real reason for SFI's frenzied response to an innocuous Facebook comment. In contrast note their stunning silence on the highly problematic Godhra verdict, which they obviously think not important enough to comment upon!! .
This is not the first time the SFI has chosen to hurl baseless allegations against AISA just to hide its betrayal of the working class. In February 2005, there was another massive rally of trade unions in Delhi against the proposed Patents Bill which was to be tabled in the Parliament. The student community has not forgotten that just one month after this rally, the CPI(M), which was part of the UPA at that time, voted FOR the Patents Act in the Parliament! The very same CPI(M) who is today trying to fashion itself as the champions of the working class, also supported the SEZ Act in Parliament in Jan 2005. This SEZ Act essentially created "foreign territories" within India, where the laws of the land, including labour laws would not be applicable! Moreover, these self-proclaimed "champions" of the working class also brought in the SEZ Act in CPI(M)-ruled West Bengal in 2003, even before the Central SEZ Act. The JNU student community has also not forgotten that when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh visited JNU in 2005 (when CPI(M) was supporting the UPA), the SFI (along with NSUI and ABVP) actively opposed AISA and other organizations who showed black flags in protest against the Patents Act and the SEZ Act, against AFSPA and the Indian Army's rape and murder of Manorama Devi. The very same CPI(M) ruthlessly and brutally used the entire state machinery in West Bengal to terrorize, rape and murder peasants agitating against corporate land-grab and land acquisition in Singur and Nandigram. The same CPI(M) has for years organized harmad vahinis -armed military campaigns against the working class -which are similar to the infamous Salwa Judum campaign in Chhattisgarh. Do the SFI-CPI(M) expect us to forget the massacres at Singur, Nandigram and Netai? Does the SFI seriously believe that the working class and the JNU student community will forgive and forget these organized massacres, and these betrayals of workers? To woo corporates and denigrate the working class, Kerala State industry minister Elamaram Karim proudly stated:
Kerala's position [is]
below the all-India average in the number of man-days lost as a result of strikes. .
..Production loss caused by industrial action has come down drastically in Kerala. But the media often fail to reflect such positive changes. Nowhere else in India can you see such a concentration of skilled workers. Significantly, they receive very low wages, compared with their counterparts elsewhere. The wages of factory workers in Kerala is lower than the national average.
in general, wages are low in Kerala". Interview with Kerala State industry minister quoted in Frontline, December 1st, 2006 .
Is this shameful celebration of low wages and no workers' strikes an indicator of radical communist politics? .
The JNU student community is well aware that in JNU too, the SFI has a shameful history of betrayal of workers' rights. During the movement for minimum wages and other workers' rights in JNU, the SFI to begin with claimed that students should have nothing to do with workers' rights. Wasn't it the same "pro-worker" SFI which voted in favour of a Proctorial Enquiry by the JNU administration against those protesting students who were demanding implementation of workers' rights in campus? .
Whether it is the open invitation to MNCs like Spencers, Reliance and Wal-Mart in the agro-retailing business or whether it is a recommendation to the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) to formulate the government's policy on land acquisition (both made by Buddhadeb Bhattacharya at a CII meeting in Kolkata on September 17, 2007), they have consistently showed their "class position"! Last October, at the peak of the CWG, when a protest was called just outside our own campus by some concerned students and some student organizations against the hoardings put up to "hide" the slums next door, the SFI chose to boycott this protest! The list of SFI-CPI(M)'s betrayals are too many to be quoted in a single leaflet. "Comrades": the real test of standing with the working class is to relentlessly champion their interests in ALL forums, be it on the streets, in the Parliament or through governments which you run. And there, your (in)glorious credentials of opening a Nestle outlet in JNU while leading the JNUSU, inviting MetroCash and Walmart in Bengal, supporting and implementing the anti-worker .

The province of Quebec recently revealed the details of an invitation round held on September 4, 2019, in which 32 candidates with an Arrima profile were invited.
The invitations were issued to candidates who had an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile and a valid job offer, as well as foreign nationals working as diplomats, consular officers, representatives of an intergovernmental organization such as the United Nations in Quebec.
The latest Quebec draw marked a significant drop as compared to the previous draws. The July 17 draw, which had similar eligibility requirements, issued 259 Invitations to Apply (ITA) for permanent selection.
The Quebec province came up with the Arrima system back in September 2018, in order to handle the pool of candidates under the Quebec Skilled Worker Program (QSWP). The candidates are supposed to use the Arrima when creating their Expression of Interest profile. This is then submitted in the bank of candidates who are registered in the QSWP. When the candidates create their EOI profile in Arrima, then they are issued a score based on human capital factors such as age, education information, area of training, work experience, and French proficiency. Candidates are then invited to apply for a CSQ based on either their scores or other factors such as labour shortages in the province’s regions. Once the candidate receives a CSQ, they can apply for a permanent residence through Canada’s federal immigration ministry.
The city of Bhiwandi, known for its textile industry, has the largest number of power looms in the country and is sometimes dubbed as 'The Manchester of India'. The industry was affected due to power shortage resulting long hours of load-shedding at some places even 10-12 hours a day. About 4 lakh skilled workers have left the state, first due to the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena attack and then after global economic crisis that hit textile manufacturing.

Alberta’s Minister of Education and Childcare Demetrios Nicolaides announced, in Calgary on Friday, June 20, 2025, new collegiate schools opening in the 2025-26 school year.
Sixteen new and four improved collegiate schools will offer students hands-on training and direct pathways to in-demand jobs.
As Alberta’s economy continues to grow, so does the demand for skilled workers. To help meet this demand and better prepare students for the future, Alberta’s government is expanding collegiate schools across the province. Budget 2025 invests $27.5 million to support this expansion, which includes $6 million for operational costs and $21.5 million for school improvements.
Collegiate schools connect classroom learning with real-world careers by offering students hands-on experience and direct pathways to post-secondary education and employment. These specialized schools equip students with practical skills, industry experience and a strong foundation for future careers, helping young Albertans succeed and thrive in a fast-paced and evolving job market.
Also speaking at the announcement were Brock Foster, student, Fusion Collegiate,
