Employment Services

CAHRD offers comprehensive services to job-seekers that can lead directly to employment through job preparation (interview skills, resume workshops, job referrals) or by creating a strategy for employment through further education and training.

The friendly and professional staff from CAHRD’s three employment departments:  Central Employment Services, Staffing Solutions and Aboriginal People with Disabilities Program are here for your assistance.  They use the most current resources and methods available to help you become employed.  Employment Counsellors from each department are available to discuss your options, and help determine the best plan of action suitable to your needs, whether it be additional upgrading, or referral directly into a training program.

CAHRD offers free orientation sessions every Friday at 9:00 a.m. for anyone interested in learning more about our education and employment services.  Please call ahead since the sessions fill up quickly:  (204) 989 7110.
