In this role, you will:
- Facilitate engaging, participant-centred Learning Labs

A believer in possibility - You see potential before you see limitations.
Experienced - You have led engaging, hands-on learning with adults and know how to adjust your approach to support individual learning needs. You bring an understanding of person-centred, strengths-based employment and have helped people discover their interests, build skills, explore career possibilities, and work toward meaningful employment goals.
