Professional English-language section: All institutions in the area that offer services to the English-speaking community are enrolled in the project. The services or programs that will benefit from significant improvement in English-language communication skills for their workers are: youth protection, adoption, social emergencies, family-type resources, complaint processing, psychosocial expert testimony, intake and referral in institutions and units, liaison intervention and referral, childhood program for pervasive developmental disorders, age-related loss of autonomy program, centralized access point, front line, home support and maintenance, mental health clinics, emergency, school psychosocial services, health information (info-santé), day centre, outpatient psychiatric clinic and help services for people with visual impairments.
Professional French language section: This measure concerns Pavillon Foster, a rehabilitation centre for English-speaking persons facing drug dependence and pathological gambling problems. This institution has a regional and supraregional vocation. Several staff members only speak English. Since the workers must interact with the resources in the field and the client’s friends and family, knowledge of French is essential.
Priorities are set based on the services identified in the access program, analysis of the data from previous years’ training programs and a survey conducted in 2009-2010 on the assessment of services in English. It emerged that, in general, the greatest need for training was in the psychosocial sector. Therefore, the training project is targeted 40% to the psychosocial sector, 30% to the healthcare sector and 30% to intake.
A lump sum of $130 is given to the institution for each day an employee attends the course. This measure concerns 240 participants. In addition, each learner who participates in at least 80% of the courses will receive $400.
