Mission Statement

The Mission of Miziwe Biik Aboriginal Employment and Training is manifold: to counsel Toronto urban native people on careers and paths and opportunities, to work with employers to secure employment opportunities, to deliver federal and provincial training programs, working with both groups and individuals to achieve these endeavours.

Jim Windigo, a respected Ojibway Elder gave us our name. Miziwe Biik is like a body of water where a ripple effect has been created; it is the ability to reach out and make positive change in the lives of the urban native people across the Greater Toronto Area.

Employment Ontario – We are changing how we help you find work!

Thank you for your continued interest in receiving assistance from Miziwe Biik Employment and Training.

Employment Ontario is introducing a new “Employment Service Delivery Model” on August 1, 2010 to make it easier for you as job seekers to find and access employment training and services. These changes will result in easier access to find and use services based on your interest and individual needs at one location. The new Employment Ontario Service Model aims to provide better accessibility, is customer centered, and is an integrated employment service delivery for job seekers and employers seeking to hire across Ontario.

Miziwe Biik Employment and Training remains dedicated to providing you with the best possible continuity of services. We will continue to provide service to you no matter what stage you are currently in your job search and/or training plan.

From now until the end of July 2010, we are preparing for these changes and the transitioning to the new Employment Service model. We thank you for your patience and support during these changing times.

If you have any questions regarding the changes, please speak to your employment counselor or go to the Employment Ontario website http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/tcu/employmentontario/
