The Peel Skills Challenge (PSC) is a board-wide event that enables students from the Peel District School Board to obtain authentic experiential, hands-on learning opportunities for students in grades 4 to 12. In the past few years, the event has grown from a one-day gathering for a few schools to a three-day event, boosting participation to over 1,200 students.
Participation in the PSC provides students with the opportunity to work collaboratively, demonstrate their skills and showcase enthusiasm for their potential career pathways, in fields including baking, auto service technology, fashion design, robotics, electronics, hairstyling and more.
The PSC is also the board’s qualifying event for the Ontario Skills Competition which is sponsored by Skills Canada - Ontario.
