Cree Employability Skills Development Partnership, CESDP

The ‘Cree Employability Skills Development Partnership’ is a 4-year training to employment initiative that was developed to help members of the James Bay Cree First Nation take maximum advantage of local and regional employment possibilities in mining, construction and hospitality sectors.
Its specific objectives are to support students in vocational and customized training programs which lead to employment and to work with Crees in the workplace once they are employed in order to try and increase retention numbers. Student success and worker retention are the major challenges.
