ONESTEP Annual General Meeting

Hold the date - Sudbury will host the AGM on September 16th.

Is your agency looking for a progressive group benefits plan for your staff?

Dear ONESTEP members,

ONESTEP is again exploring the idea of working with a company to provide competitively priced health care and dental benefits and other related benefits such as RRSPs, life insurance and long term disability. The company that we are considering working with works exclusively with non-profit organizations in Canada. Please contact me if you would like more information about this association-wide plan. Send emails to me at bbeaupre@onestep.on.ca or telephone me at (416) 591-7151 x 224. Thank you. Bernadette Beaupre

Job Search in Canada: A DVD Guide to Resumes, Cover Letters and Interview Skills for New Canadians

Very often, our job search practices and employer expectations are unfamiliar to new Canadians. This DVD was produced to assist them as they work with job coaches in Job Connect and other community employment help providers. Supported locally by the Employment Help Centre, Career Planning Services and the Job Finding Clubs, the production was jointly funded by Niagara College and HRSD. While 2000 copies have been distributed to community partners for use in the Niagara Region, additional copies are available for $10 (taxes included) plus $2.50 for shipping and handling.
