About the CCAA


The Canadian Council for Aviation & Aerospace (CCAA) is the only national association dedicated to
attracting and developing workers with the skills the Canadian industry needs to meet the demands
of the current and future workplace. The CCAA actively supports industry several ways that include:
Training, Certification and Assessment
The CCAA is Canada’s gold standard provider of training, upskilling, certification, and accreditation
programs to the industry. The Council offers 32 national occupational standards (competency
and task based) and certifications for aviation/aerospace occupations that are transportable from
region to region. It offers a wide range of in-demand training available on-line, virtual or in-person
for courses such as CARS, HF, PRM, CASO, Quality Auditor, and Soft Skills. The CCAA Logbook
has long been regarded as the essential tool workers need to achieve certification.
The CCAA also offers an industry-based recognition program for employers to objectively assess
the skills and competency of foreign-trained and Canadian workers transitioning into aviation/
aerospace from other industries against Canadian standards.
Labour Market Intelligence (LMI)
The CCAA is the trusted resource that government and Canada’s aviation and aerospace sector
turn to for credible LMI and insights on upskilling and workforce development.
Wage Subsidies
The CCAA is an active partner with government to deliver two wage subsidy programs to the
Canadian aviation and aerospace employers:
• The Student Work Placement Program (SWP) creates additional quality work-integrated
learning placements for students enrolled in post-secondary studies across Canada.
• CCAA Jumpstart is a limited-time program that offers employers wage subsidies when
they hire new graduates and give them their first meaningful work experience.
Job Listings
• CCAA’s Jobs across Canada: on the CCAA
website and a free email published daily, listing
open aviation and aerospace jobs across Canada.
• CCAA Online Job Magnet: a free service that
matches employers to jobseekers by skill as well
as experience and training.
With a first-rate workforce, Canada can meet industry
challenges, now and in the future.
To participate in CCAA initiatives, please contact the
CCAA at 613-727-8272 or 1-800-488-9715. Follow us
