About Futureworx

OUR MISSION

Futureworx Society’s mission is to provide employment opportunities to recognize potential and develop employment skills. With a goal to “help people reach their potential” Futureworx activities centre around four pillars – Engage, Inspire, Educate and Innovate.

OUR FUNDERS

Province of Nova Scotia; Department of Community Services, Nova Scotia Department of Labour and Advanced Education. Service Canada and the Counselling Foundation of Canada.

OUR PURPOSE

Futureworx Society is a non profit community based organization structured to help people with diverse needs identify their strengths and goals, develop skills and achieve success in school, work, and life. We offer an expansive range of employment, educational, and training programs, as well as, business, corporate and customized services that innovatively respond to the needs of our community, our province and our partners across Canada and internationally.

Futureworx is now a Nova Scotia Works Employment Services Centre. We help job seekers and employers navigate a range of programs – from career planning, job searches and on-the-job development to recruitment, planning and HR support.

The Employability Skills Assessment Tool (ESAT) provides a framework and quantitative assessment methodology for the development of nine employability skills: motivation, attitude, accountability, time management, stress management, presentation, teamwork, adaptability and confidence.

“Food Service” has been a wonderful experience for me. It has reminded me of my skills and abilities which resulted in the confidence I need to work well.
Preparation time has been a very important part of having the kitchen run smoothly throughout the day. You always must think ahead to leave room for unexpected orders and events.
I really enjoyed my opportunity to cater to the “Annual General Meeting.” It allowed me to try out my presentation skills. I am thoroughly enjoying all of my opportunities here at Futureworx in the “Food Service” program. I am capable and learning so much.
