According to forecasts from the Ministère de l'Éducation

The labour shortage in the job market in general creates an environment conducive to students dropping out of school. Major investments in education are planned over the next few years to encourage graduation, student retention and worker requalification.

There are also measures to promote student mobility, by drawing people from other regions of Quebec outside major urban centres and from abroad.

Colleges have been facing a shortage of teaching staff. This issue affects all types of education, but competitive salaries in certain industries make recruiting and retaining instructors in technical programs more difficult.

The increased importance of continuing education in the workplace should stimulate the creation of vocational training instructor positions.

The availability of university education using non-traditional teaching methods (delivered entirely online or in a hybrid format) continues to grow, which will have the impact of changing the qualifications required of instructors in terms of technical and pedagogical skills.

While the employment outlook is very good at the provincial level, it will be moderate or good in eight regions.
