Equiforce is forming an Industry Advisory Committee to help guide the design and delivery of FastTrackHER Energy, a new pilot program supporting women as they explore careers in the energy sector, earn sector-relevant certifications, and connect with employers.
We’re inviting employers, industry representatives, training and education providers, and community partners from across the St. John’s Metro/Avalon energy ecosystem to lend their expertise and help shape a program that reflects real workforce needs. The time commitment is minimal: just one consultation and two short meetings between August and December 2026, scheduled around your availability.
Applications are open until the committee is formed. Full details are available below.
Equiforce is seeking an experienced curriculum development consultant or firm to support the next phase of FastTrackHER, our intensive, industry‑informed workforce readiness program designed to advance women and gender‑diverse individuals into high‑demand careers.

The selected proponent will help shape a three‑week, implementation‑ready program that reflects real workforce needs, employer expectations, and emerging opportunities across the province.
Submissions close on Monday, July 6. Please send questions to opportunities@equiforce.ca.

Equiforce invites proposals from qualified curriculum development consultants or firms to support the second iteration of the FastTrackHER Pilot Program. FastTrackHER is a short-term, industry-informed workforce readiness program designed to prepare women for employment in high-demand sectors. The first pilot is currently being delivered in the Avalon region of Newfoundland and Labrador and focused on the construction sector. That work produced a foundational curriculum framework and template set that will be adapted for additional sectors.
Equiforce is seeking quotes from qualified consultants to support the development of a three-year strategic plan. This engagement will include facilitated planning sessions with the Board of Directors and staff, followed by the development of a concise, actionable, and public-facing strategic plan.
