Judy
Judy dedicated 25 years of her life to working as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) before a sudden heart attack ended her nursing career. Following her recovery, depression and self-doubt made it difficult to step out of her comfort zone and try anything new.
Attending our Annapolis Valley Work Centre program empowered Judy with insights and strategies to rebuild her self-esteem and rediscover her strengths. With renewed confidence, she stepped back out into the world to tackle challenges in her personal and professional life that she never dreamed would be possible ... like driving from Saskatchewan to Nova Scotia for a medical appointment. Way to go, Judy!
Stephanie
Stephanie worked in a local production facility for 15 years. When the plant
was closed, she was left without a plan for her future. She came to
PeopleWorx hoping to find at least a new job. What she found was a new
perspective about who she is and her life going forward. Listen as she talks
about her experience in the Annapolis Valley Work Centre program, where
participating in Personal Development (PD) classes gave her courage,
self-confidence and a positive outlook to go along with them.
Angie
Angela has over 25 years’ experience working in retail, and had spent the
last 8 years working for a financial institution until her position was
eliminated. She felt the timing was right for a change of pace, and set out
to obtain a job in an office environment. During her job search, she realized
she would need to fill gaps in her skill set in order to work in the
administrative field. She learned about the Annapolis Valley Work Centre
program, and enrolled in Basic Office Skills.
