The Youth Employment and Skills Strategy (YESS) Program aims to help youth make career decisions and create a career plan, develop workplace skills, and gain work experience to successfully transition into the labour market.
YESS offers four sessions per year for newcomers to Canada who want to be employed full time in their chosen field. Eligibility includes permanent residents, refugees, and recent citizens who are under 30 years old with English language levels of CLB 5 or higher.
This program includes 8 weeks of classroom training followed by a six-week work placement. Oh, and we should mention that classroom training and work placement are PAID! If you know about our Career Bridging program, YESS is like CBP’s cousin!
We are here to help you make career decisions, learn valuable employment skills and support you in getting Canadian work experience. We are accepting applications for the program on an ongoing basis: please fill out the application form here.
After you have applied to the program we will email you with the next Information Session dates and location. Please attend an Information Session to find out more about this program and to schedule an interview.
