Excellent program and I recommend it. It helped me turn my life around.

Fabulous experience. I have been recommending this course to others. I am very fortunate to have taken this course. It was very uplifting. I can’t believe it’s free!

Excellent decision I made to take this course. I am very pleased that I have knowledge of the computer programs (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, etc.).

My experience at ERS was very positive. Being in a group who are in a similar situation as I am, helped me to get motivated to work hard and embark on the path of finding a job. Instructors and coordinators really work very hard and were well prepared on topics that needed to be discussed.

I love this program because all the teachers and staff are so enthusiastic and open minded. I’m glad I took this opportunity.

Great program, I learned a lot about myself.

I am grateful to be here. I have learned a lot that will help me in my future job search already. ERS provides more than just job re-entry skills.

This experience will go down in my history books as the best ever, I wish it can be more accessible to more people. It lifted me up from my space of defeat and lead me back to motivation and finally where I am today. Thank you for this sense of community in every aspect. I appreciate it.

She is a great computer teacher. The material she presented was concise. When I had a question, she was helpful.

I found the computer class so helpful and necessary.

Very knowledgeable and charismatic. Made learning Microsoft office enjoyable. Very patient and good at simplifying concepts and information.

Our computer teacher is very patient, and that is very important in this case because most of us do not know computers and we feel reassured and confident the way he helped us and believed in us…..his help, patience, and encouragement and his happy personality made my computer fears go away. Now I'm confident enough to go back to college.

She is very patient, understanding and always ready to help. She listens and teaches very well. I will like to express my thanks to her. I am grateful.

I loved it all. I gained my confidence back again. I have noticed a big improvement in my speaking and writing of the French Language.

She is a great teacher, she has patience, explains really well and encourages us, she is always concerned about us, in our learning as well as personal. She's positive, always very professional but warm person as well. We are very lucky to have her as our teacher.

The French teacher was very good and she was patience with everyone and took her time help the ones that needed the help and she explained everything really well.

They were helpful in improving self-awareness and self-esteem.

I really enjoyed the personal development topics and found them interesting. I always learned something from these sessions and looked forward to them. It is important to know how to stand up for oneself in the workplace while stilling being polite about it. Stress management was great and positive thinking too. We can always benefit from being reminded about these things. I didn't prefer one topic over the other. I found them all to be interesting and beneficial.

I cannot emphasize enough how beneficial this was to me and should be added to school curriculum too.

Very useful. We do not learn this type of stuff in our education in Canada. Helped me learn a lot about myself and provide a direction in life for my career.
