The provincial government has renewed a contract with Tremploy to deliver services to help unemployed Islanders develop job skills.
Under the renewed agreement, Tremploy will deliver eight Career Bridges and eight Passport to Employment sessions at locations around Prince Edward Island.
The $326,000 agreement will fund activities until September 2016 and continues a long-standing partnership between Tremploy and the province.
The project is expected to serve 154 clients.
Career Bridges works with people considering a career change or seeking further training.
The program assists participants with career decision making, skills enhancement, job search, and employment maintenance.
The program has been in operation for approximately 40 years.
Passport to Employment has been funded under the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers since 2006 to support older workers to extend their labour market participation and reintegrate into employment.
Delivery of the programming is supported under three federal/provincial agreements including the Canada-P.E.I. Labour Market Development Agreement (LMDA), Canada-P.E.I. Job Fund (CJF), and Targeted Initiative for Older Workers (TIOW).
