We are excited to share that Workforce Planning Hamilton is a partner in Student Talent Connect – a new program designed to support Hamilton employers' access to post-secondary student talent.
Through a new partnership between the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce, McMaster University, Mohawk College, Redeemer University, Workforce Planning Hamilton and the Business + Higher Education Roundtable, Student Talent Connect will assist Hamilton businesses who are interested in hiring students through work-integrated learning opportunities.
Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) can take many forms, from paid structured work placements as part of a diploma or degree program to more flexible unpaid co-curricular experiences. Student Talent Connect promotes and supports employer access to a range of WIL opportunities that includes internships, co-ops, and field placements, across McMaster University, Mohawk College, and Redeemer University.
This program is free to all Hamilton businesses of all sizes, and does not require a membership with the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce to access.
