Getting your foot in the door isn’t easy — especially when employers want experience you haven’t had the chance to build yet.
S.C.Y.L.D. bridges that gap by pairing intensive, hands-on employment skills training with a paid work placement, giving youth aged 15–30 the tools and confidence they need to find meaningful work and start building a career.
What the program includes
3 Weeks of Employment Skills Training
In-person workshops covering everything from resume writing and interview prep to workplace readiness, Monday to Friday, 9:00 am–4:00 pm.
5-Week Paid Work Experience
A quality employment placement where you gain hands-on experience in a real work environment — and get paid for it.
Eligibility
Age
15–30 years old (inclusive)
Status
Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or protected person legally entitled to work in Canada
Availability
Must be available Monday–Friday, 9:00 am–4:00 pm for the 3-week workshop component
I just accepted an excellent offer… It is directly related to my field of engineering. I would like to thank you for all of your help and guidance as it helped me a great deal in learning new skills related to job searching, interview preparation and resume editing.
