Funded by Employment and Immigration Canada under the Job Development/Canadian Jobs Strategy Program, - Inter-- connect accepts willing students who, through a lack of educa- tion, have little or no mean- - Ingful work experience and a long history of Social, -de- pendance: “T think we have exactly the said She explained that ‘Intercon- nect.is an individualized pro- gram that will “evolve. as it grows’’ through a built-i -in system of program evaluation by‘ a Professional Advisory Com- ‘mittee, which includes profes- sional people such as employ- ‘ment. counsellors.:.and social workers, and an Employers Ad- visory Committee, made‘ up of local businessmen. . *“We have to be able to adapt to each situation’ as we go along,’ she said. ‘“We have to be prepared to be flexible and go with the flow.”’ A first in Terrace, Intercon- nect is the only service in the area which matches students with employers and then will design a training program responsive to the specific needs of the student and employer. Program manager Detlef Beck said that with the help of Employment Training Coordi- nator Larry Merril and Office Manager Sylvia Macdonald, the students will be given the tools they need to find and retain jobs in the competitive labor market -while at the sdme time becoming independent responsible adults in the community. ‘After the completion of the computer-based job readiness and skills training segment of the program, Beck said students will receive ‘‘on-the-job”’ train- ing with support from both their instructor and the employer. He explained that one of the unique features of Interconnect . was that it will continue to pro- vide both the student. and employer with support and per- formance assessments until the final goal, permanent placement in the competitive labor market, ‘is achieved. Beck said the program has — been highly successful in other B.C. centers and predicted the same success for Terrace. He said it has already been demon- strated that positions for Inter- connect students are available in the Terrace area, ‘‘particular- y.in the small business sector’. “Potential employers -or students can obtain more infor- mation on the program by phon- ing Interconnect at 635-7995, Agent — continued from page 1 Randy Tremblay said - ‘the number of services to be moved into the consolidated center here will depend on the sort of building acquired and its loca- tion.
