Have 15 minutes to make a difference?

Community Employment Choices is pleased to support the Elgin Middlesex Oxford Workforce Planning and Development Board's regional Workforce Survey. Whether you are currently working, searching for a job, considering a career change, attending school, or not participating in the workforce right now, your feedback is important.

The survey is an opportunity to share what is working well, what challenges you may be facing, and what supports could help people achieve their employment goals. The information collected will help shape future workforce planning and services throughout Elgin, Middlesex, and Oxford.

The survey is confidential and takes approximately 15 minutes to complete.

Every response helps ensure local services and supports reflect the real experiences of people in our communities. Link in Comments.

Tuesday Tip

After a long weekend spent connecting with family and friends, remember that relationships matter in your job search too.

Many opportunities start with a conversation. This week, take one small step toward expanding your network. Attend a community event, join a workshop, or talk to someone about your career goals.

Need help getting started? Community Employment Choices can connect you with local employers, employment opportunities, training, and community resources.

Call us at 519-245-4500 or email [email protected] to learn how we can support your employment journey.

"I think I need a change, but I don't know where to start."

With school buses back on the roads and students heading back to school today, many adults are also thinking about their future.

Maybe you have wondered:
* Could I learn something new?
* Should I go back to school?
* Would a trade be a good fit for me?
* Is there another career out there for me?

Ready for a fresh start? Reach out to Community Employment Choices and let's talk about what is next for you!

Whether you are heading back to school, supporting a student, or thinking about your own next steps, we wish everyone a wonderful first day back and week ahead. Have fun and enjoy all the possibilities that come with a new school year!

Friday Community Spotlight

As summer begins to wind down, downtown Strathroy is looking beautiful.

From well-kept storefronts to community spaces, it is a great reminder of what makes our communities such special places to live, work and connect.

One thing that caught our attention this week was seeing our community partner, Technical Training Group Stratford & Area, featured on a downtown sign with their upcoming Fast Track Your Welding Career program. What a great opportunity in our own community to learn new skills!

At Community Employment Choices, we are proud to be part of the Strathroy-Caradoc community as well as the many communities that make up Middlesex County. We are grateful for the employers, community partners, and residents who help make this region such a great place to call home.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

Things We Hear Every Day

"I don't have enough experience."

But experience does not only come from a job. You may have gained skills by:

* Volunteering
* Helping family members
* Going to school or training
* Supporting community events
* Learning something new

You probably have more skills than you think.

Everyone has a toolbox of skills. Sometimes they just need help identifying them.

Sometimes a simple conversation can help you see the strengths and experience you already have. If you are not sure where to start, we can help.

Contact CEC to connect with an Employment Advisor and learn more about the skills you already have.
