IWS is equipping Red River Métis women, girls and 2SLGBTQ+ youth with the tools they need to find meaningful employment. IWS is the central access point in schools to apply for jobs and connect with employees across Manitoba, and for employers to apply for student employees.
IWS and the Métis Employment & Training (MET) department work together to pair students with promising positions every summer with the IWS ‘Summer Student Employment Program.’ Fully funded by MET, students gain employment, training, and mentoring by employers in their Region. Employers gain a fully-funded student, and train potential future employees.
The Internship Program for post-secondary students to work within IWS, the MMF and its Affiliates during the school year is creating sustainable future staff.
