FREE Webinar: English Programs for the Workforce

May 6 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
One in three Canadian employers anticipate labour challenges in 2025, and 40% are concerned about the lack of upskilling programs. As staffing and skill gaps grow in healthcare, manufacturing, construction and food service, HR leaders seek to connect with new talent pools and innovative learning solutions. Upskilling with English delivers on both priorities, especially as newcomers drive 80% of Canada’s labour force growth.
 
Join us to learn how workplace-based English programs connect companies to this untapped workforce, equipping workers with essential job skills – including English proficiency. Discover how this solution drives HR leaders’ recruitment and workforce development goals, along with career mobility for Canada’s newcomers.
