Program overview

YMCA BC's employment programs connect employers with motivated, work-ready candidates: from youth launching their careers to newcomers, tradespeople, and job seekers across a wide range of industries and experience levels.

We understand that finding the right candidates can be a challenge in today's job market. The candidates in our programs are prepared, supported, and eager to contribute from day one. As an employer partner, you get a reliable stream of talent, and you help someone take the next step in their career.

Key partnership opportunities include:

  • Wage subsidies to offset the cost of hiring and training
  • Access to our employer network for panels, events, and recruitment opportunities
  • Customized training and onboarding designed around your business needs
  • Sector-specific candidate preparation tailored to your industry
  • Support for work-related expenses, including work clothes, transportation, and other job-related costs
