Outline The Canadian Council for Aviation & Aerospace (CCAA) is a not-for-profit organization which is dedicated to ensuring the Canadian Aviation and Aerospace industry has enough workers with the right skills to meet industry needs. CCAA has two main areas of focus: skills development and industry demographics (supply and demand for particular skills). CCAA engages employers, workers, educators, professional associations and government in its work. A Sector Council is not a trade association it is an industry resource. 2
