The TEER system is replacing the skill type model for two key reasons, according to Statistics Canada. To begin with, the TEER system tries to clarify the amount of education and work experience necessary to operate in a certain profession. Second, the skill type model artificially divides jobs into low- and high-skilled categories. The goal of implementing TEER is to provide stakeholders a better understanding of the skills needed for each occupation.
