The Skills Shortage in Canada
• The Canadian Oil and Gas (O&G) sector alone loses an estimated $4 billion per year due to skills shortages.
• 25 job groups show signs of skills shortages. 21% of employment in Canada, these groups have an unemployment rate of less than 1%,
• Training current and prospective employees is time-consuming and expensive.

Why NRC?
• NRC is a globally recognized leader in emerging learning technologies• Not core competencies for target clients• LPSS benefits from NRC’s research in
other fields• NRC is deeply connected to the e-
learning industry• University researchers not driven to
spend the time with industry• NRC by contrast has collaboration and
commercialization experience• Neutral broker reduces risk to technology
development partners

LPSS Program Overview
• LPSS is a $19 million program over 5 years, average 30 FTEs per year
• Based on hosted services used to develop and monetize core technologies, which are then transferred to commercial receptors
• Will work with Canadian learning technology providers and target verticals to address critical skills shortages in that industry
• Revenues during program execution, with potential for ongoing licensing revenues

The Program Business Model
• Two-phase business model, based first on the development of hosted services, and second on the transfer of technology and client base to strategic partners.
• Capacity development through hosted projects
• Monetization through through development agreements and fee-for-service
• Transfer of program assets to the commercial sector
• Consolidation of revenue and exit.

Why Is This Difficult?
• It’s not one big thing…• … but a set of many small things• Tasks that are simple in an enterprise system…
• Like data storage• Like content distribution• Like authentication• Like analytics
… become that much more difficult
