Virtual reality program will help people explore, train and get working in the hospitality industry
July 06, 2021
The Ontario government is investing over $380,000 in a free, virtual program led by Career Services Brockville to prepare up to 160 people with disabilities for careers in food and hospitality. Through this program, participants will develop both sector-specific and transferable skills to safely prepare them for work.
Details were provided today by Monte McNaughton, Minister of Labour, Training and Skills Development, who was joined by Raymond Cho, Minister of Seniors and Accessibility, and Steve Clark, MPP for Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes.
“Our pandemic recovery must include giving people a hand up and spreading opportunity more widely and fairly,” said Minister McNaughton. “This innovative project will prepare people with disabilities for good jobs in the food and hospitality sector that strengthen their families and make our communities stronger.”
