Description:

This program is a job-readiness/post-secondary readiness program designed to meet the unique educational and/or vocational needs of people who would not normally consider or qualify for entry into a traditional post-secondary program, or for those people with complex disabilities who require one-to-one intervention or continuous access to technology in order to benefit from academic studies.

It is an individualized, supportive program to help bridge the gap for mature students or students who have graduated from high school with workplace credits, substantially modified courses, and/or an Ontario Secondary School Certificate and who are having difficulty finding appropriate and meaningful work or an appropriate entry point into further post-secondary studies. In addition, students participate in career planning; workplace essential skills training including life skills, literacy and numeracy skills; communication skills; customer service skills; basic technology skills; and work experience placements.
