Skill development that empowers individuals to find gainful employment
"I have been working at Shoppers Drug Mart for almost two weeks now and I could not be happier to be working again.
I am very grateful to have had a chance to complete the industrial skills training program, and often reflect on the many topics we covered during work.
My current priorities are to pass the probation period, stabilize on the job for the next few months to a year, and secure regular full-time hours.
I would like to sincerely thank you for your efforts in training me on the proper and safe operation of the lifting machines, and for your patience with me during the practice sessions."
