What will happen at the Job forum?
Participating candidates will get an opportunity to interact online with Canadian companies in the sectors of early childhood and teaching.
The school boards, daycare centres, and language schools hiring at the event will get in touch with candidates whose profiles match the job posting requirements to schedule chat or videoconference interviews.
Candidates will also get the chance to discover the procedures involved in gaining accreditation to practice as a primary or secondary school teacher or as an educator.
Exchanges with delegates from French-speaking communities and the provinces and territories of Canada will also be possible.
They will give the participants information about the Canadian towns, regions, educational systems, and particular immigration initiatives, as well as inquiries concerning French-speaking life throughout the country (apart from Quebec).
Those interested in obtaining training can also learn about bridge programs in early childhood education.
Additionally, there will be conferences that participants can attend to gain an overview of early childhood programs, teaching in French, and the Canadian school system.
