Facing a layoff is difficult. Where do you go? Who can help? What are your options? We have the answer and will help you navigate and weigh your options.
Employment Consultants will help you develop your goals and create a personalized action plan. They will give you feedback on your progress and walk you through any challenges you might experience.
Services you can expect from your consultant include:
Career Exploration/Consultation & Self-Assessment
Discover and consider available options through consultation and self-assessment tools to identify aptitudes, values, and interests and establish career transitions and educational goals.
Better Jobs Ontario
Get skills training and financial support when you qualify for Better Jobs Ontario (formerly Second Career).
After the completion of an initial assessment, an Employment Consultant can provide you with information about the services and training opportunities through the Better Jobs Ontario program, help you to pursue re-training for a new career and obtain financial support.
Effective April 29, 2022, the program expanded to better help people who may face challenges finding stable jobs such as gig workers, youth and people on social assistance. If you have been unemployed for six months or longer, and are part of a low-income household, you may benefit from these changes.
Better Jobs Ontario aims to help you rejoin the workforce quickly.
