The first step is to call Workplace Learning PEI for a 15-minute phone consultation. From there, our staff can work with you to develop a training plan tailored to your unique business needs.

Once you are satisfied with your training plan, you will begin hiring your WERC participants. Employers are responsible for recruitment but we may be able to assist you by matching you with job seekers who have registered for WERC training.

Shortly after hiring, WERC training begins. With assistance from a personal learning coach, participants undergo eight weeks of training delivered both in class and on-the-job, while supervisors selected by the employer receive Coaching and Mentoring training.

What are the benefits of this program?

Here are just a few of the benefits you can expect from the WERC program:

• Hiring job-ready employees will save you time, money and stress. WERC employees have improved motivation and accountability skills, so they are more likely to show up for work and less likely to make costly mistakes.
• You’ll struggle less with labour shortages. Our new training approach can help you retain quality employees and mitigate losses from high rates of turnover.
• Your business will be more productive. By hiring capable, confident employees – and selecting supervisors for coaching and mentoring training – you should experience higher productivity and improved teamwork capabilities.
