Lots of people are coming to NOVA, and to assist the number wanting to come to NOVA, but can't, we have put together this program to guide people in finding their own employment. Those that may just need a bit of a hand and some support.

Who is program for?
Anyone, but primarily those with a disability, who has access to a computer

How will this program help someone with a disability?
We will look at:

  • Career identification
  • What makes a good resume and how do we promote ourselves?
  • Interview skills - How to beat out the competition?
  • Resources available to you at no cost - need a hand to look over your resume, do photocopying & provide stamps.
  • Disclosure of disability - mental illness keep quiet or tell?
  • Breaking down barriers on employing people with a disability/ overcome myths

    We will look at barriers and overcome them, such as, inertia (not doing anything)We want to improve job seeking and help you gain employment.
    By equiping you with job seeking tools and tips like:

  • How to market yourself
  • Cold calling
  • Networking

  • Cover letters
