Welcome to the Tools of the Trade Monthly Toolbox Talk July Edition. In this special episode of our Monthly Toolbox Talks, we interview an amazing woman whose love for helping others knows no bounds. France Daviault has an inspiring and big heart and an impressive resume to boot. Currently, France is the executive director at the Canadian Apprenticeship Forum (CAF-FCA), a non-profit organization that connects Canada’s apprenticeship community. Prior to leading CAF-FCA with utmost ease, she served as vice president of the Automotive Industries Association of Canada where she oversaw industry programs and association operations. France earned her Certified Association Executive designation from the Canadian Society of Association Executives. A bilingual, renowned leadership professional, and advocate for apprenticeship, France holds a Master of Arts in Professional Communications from Royal Roads University (with a specialization in intercultural and international communications). In today’s show, we talked about something both close to our hearts—apprenticeship. France covered all the basics of apprenticeship, from skills gap concerns to the stigmas of blue-collar careers. This episode is powerful, inspirational, and thought-provoking, so you owe it to yourself not to miss it!Please enjoy and if you would like to participate, please send an email to colin@toolspodcast.comFor show notes, blog posts and past guests, please visit: www.toolspodcast.comSign up for Colin's newsletter HEREInterested in sponsoring the podcast?
