History
The Skills Training Division was created in 1986, absorbing many of the functions and staff of the defunct Employment Training Branch, as well as elements from the Planning and Development Branch. It was comprised of the Apprenticeship Branch and the Training Support Services Branch. The Literacy Branch and the Youth Employment Services Branch were added in 1988.
The Skills Training Division ceased to exist in the Spring of 1990; the Literacy Branch and the Youth Employment Services Branch were transferred to the Ontario Ministry of Education, while responsibility for the Student Venture and the Youth Venture programs was transferred to the Ontario Ministry of Industry, Trade and Technology. The rest of the Division became part of the new Skills Development Division.
