PEIANC Community Engagement and Employment Workshops

Employment Assistance Services PEIANC's Employment Counsellors provide newcom-ers with support in developing their career path in Canada by assessing previous skills, employment and education backgrounds to help clients prepare resumes and cover letters that highlight their indi-vidual skills. Assisting with job searches, interview preparations, identifying post- secondary training, and exploring alternate career options are all part of PEIANC Employment Assistance Services supports. Counsellors offer one-on-one meetings as well as group workshops while connecting clients with networking and mentor- ship opportunities. The Employment Assistance Services (EAS) team immediately recognized the impact the first months of COVID-19 were having on employment and the economy in PEI. The EAS team worked closely with clients who were facing different and difficult em-ployment challenges and barriers while collaborat-ing with employers who were either. struggling to remain open or were looking for an immediate work force.
