happening

September 10, 2018 is the start date of our next Employment Program ~ The Matrix

This program is industry focused with many excellent and valuable tickets provided to participants to help them enter the job market on the best foot.

Initial applicants are Youth between the ages of 15 and 30, however applicants outside of the age group will be considered.

Application forms are available at the Skills Centre.  Don’t miss out.  If you are not working, or working minimal hours and want a change, this program has excellent outcomes that can change your employment circumstance.  

With all that ACTION in the last few weeks in the Princeton Labour Market and Job Opportunities at an all-time high … the foot traffic in our centre is QUIET, that’s for sure. It’s a smattering of job seekers in comparison to job postings. 

Furthermore it’s a sweltering 35+plus degrees out and most people are job searching on a beach!  What we call networking some call… well you get the picture! If you want to be working you could be! 

While you are out in the sun, you will find us BUSTIN a Move behind the scenes… Its R-F-P  (Request For Proposal) season in Employment Services, and that landscape is ripe with Skills Centre business for the next few months. In addition we are putting together the fall calendar, and talking to Industry about their training needs so we can produce some excellent training for our local Work Force.

~Working on our collective Employment , Skills, and Training future.~

Looking to get our Calendar out for Course offerings in September, and we want to know what your would like to see Princeton!  Also call for Instructors and trainer’s with specialized knowledge, course offerings.  we would like to meet with you to discuss how we may be able to partner and offer your talent to Princeton.
