How it Works

Through employment training and support services, we help women explore new careers that pay well and provide opportunity for advancement. The following information will give you an idea of how our process works.

1. Information Sessions

We hold regular information sessions for each of our programs. This is a chance to learn about what a program is like and ask questions. We recommend that every applicant attend at least one. Find out about our upcoming information sessions here.

If you’re not sure which program you’re interested in yet, we recommend checking out Tools for Training which is a free 3-day workshop focused on career exploration, goal setting, and self-assessment. 

Tools for Training also introduces you to the concept of online and self-paced learning.  Find out about our upcoming workshops here.
