ISCP is a FREE virtual 5-month program that supports individuals with post-secondary education and/or professional experience in the helping professions as they prepare for employment and advance their careers in Ontario's Community and Social Services sector.
Our first cohort of 20 students launched in October 2026, bringing together an exceptionally diverse and accomplished group of professionals. The multilingual cohort bring a variety of academic backgrounds, professional certifications, and education in social work, social services, psychology, and related fields.
With our next cohort launching on December 1, 2026 and a third cohort planned for February 2027, we are looking forward to connecting with community organizations and referral partners.
During the information session, you will learn about:
- The program's structure and curriculum
- Eligibility requirements and the application process
- Participant benefits and employment preparation
- Placement opportunities and the referral process
You will also have an opportunity to ask questions and explore how ISCP may support the clients and communities you serve.
Our ISCP program complements existing Employment Ontario services. Clients can continue working with their current EO service provider while accessing our classes and training.
