The Employment and Training Dept. is a resource centre which provides pre-employment assessment, jobsearch resources and tools, skills training, counseling and volunteer opportunities. Our department has been successful in assisting many people to obtain employment as well as helping employers find qualified candidates. Our job development team focuses on professionalism, quality services and advanced computer technology to guide job seekers. For employers we offer pre-screening, qualified candidates, interview setup, post-hiring support, and financial incentives.

Our central location at the Spadina subway station, right on the Bloor line means a shorter ride on the TTC from virtually anywhere in the City. The Spadina Streetcar line is right outside our door giving access from the King, Queen and Dundas streetcar lines, as well.
