Education

The Centre of Excellence – a pillar of YOUR NLCA: Together, we’re building Newfoundland and Labrador.

One of the core benefits of an NLCA membership is the opportunity to advance your professional standing and qualifications in the construction industry.

Our Centre of Excellence Education program helps you build the foundation that you need. Align your skills directly with those in the commercial & industrial construction industry, allowing you to continue working while gaining the skills needed in your career.

Our Program features a wide variety of education and training opportunities through live webinars and courses, as well as e-learning. New offerings are being added daily.

NLCA is thrilled to announce the extension into 2026 of funding to support our members in addressing one of the industry’s biggest challenges: the skilled labor shortage!

This funding will go directly toward creating upskilling programs to:

• Equip your workforce with the latest skills and technologies.
• Enable small and rural businesses to compete for larger projects and joint ventures.
• Strengthen business continuity in an evolving market.

We’re here to help you grow your business and prepare for the future. Visit the upcoming courses tab to view the complete list of courses and e-learning opportunities.
