Connections is an 18-week training course that runs in partnership with St. Stephen's Employment and Training Centre, Metro Toronto Social Services and the Toronto Board of Education. This course offers 12 weeks of in-class training in Business English, intermediate computers and customer service excellence, followed by a 6 week co-op placement in an entry-level position, in an office or customer service environment.
Employers can help in two ways... Firstly, we are always in search of employers who would be willing to hire a co-op student from this program for their 6-week co-op placement. They are ideal for entry-level clerical, administrative or customer service positions.
Secondly, if you have an opening in any of these areas, we'd be happy to connect you with our roster of recent graduates. Moreover, we can offer financial incentives to offset any hiring or training costs. Connections clients are ready and eager to work!
When you hire a Connections student, we can offer you:
- Access to our ready pool of qualified candidates
- The support and guidance of a Job Developer for the first six months
- A financial incentive, when needed - from $1,000 up to $2,500 for six months, depending on the candidate's experience
- An additional $500 for third party training, if necessary.
- Wage subsidy/training incentive, if you qualify
- A cost-effective, efficient way to increase your staff
- An opportunity to hire enthusiastic staff members who are willing to invest of themselves
- A chance to give back to the community by developing career opportunities for youth
Hundreds of Toronto employers are already benefiting from Skills Link IWE, why shouldn't you?
Our FREE Job Posting Service offers you the opportunity to distribute and post your employment opportunities within our centre. This feature will give you immediate access to thousands of "untapped" qualified candidates who are readily seeking work.
