A new program launched at Assiniboine Community College (ACC) aims to provide essential skills to youth facing barriers to employment in the Parkland.

The Parkland Youth Transition program will welcome 80 students over the next three years.

The first intake of the program begins in September — delivered at ACC campuses in Dauphin and Russell — and is intended for individuals with little or no work experience, who may not have completed their high school education.

Participants will receive provincial minimum wage during the 11 week training period, while getting a variety of employable skills.

Director of Assiniboine’s Parkland Campus in Dauphin, Gabe Mercier, says “this opportunity is designed to support youth facing barriers to employment in the Parkland region, to help them with transitioning into the workforce or bridging to further education pathways,” and adds “this also includes visible minorities, Indigenous youth, youth with disabilities and newcomers.” 

Mercier says the program is open to anyone in the community aged 15 to 30.
