Service Description
A free work-readiness program designed for newcomers who want to gain Canadian experience in their training area and learn more about Canadian work culture. Applications are accepted all year and intakes are held in March and August.
The Mentorship Program consists of two major parts:
- A 10-week in-class portion consisting of workshops on resume and cover letter writing, Canadian workplace culture and workers’ rights, job search techniques, interview skills, presentations from employer partners and industry experts, and various other employment-related topics.
- An 8-week work placement in which participants complete a paid internship with a company involved in the client’s training area. Participants can gain Canadian work experience, demonstrate their skills to an employer, and network with other professionals in their field.

- A minimum CLB 5;
- In Canada for less than 5 years;
- Legally able to work in Canada;
