  • Learning about career opportunities;
  • Gaining insights into training programs and certification pathways;
  • Hearing from industry experts; and
  • Participating in interactive and networking activities.

The event agenda was created with a specific interest in helping new Canadians in their career development and job searches, featuring ‘success stories’ and tips from those who have been able to establish their careers in NL’s green economy.
