Portfolio Development Program

FAQ

• How does the program work?
  There are three steps to accreditation

  1. Conduct a skills audit to assess your skills, education and experience and match them to current job market needs. 
  2. Set personalized career goals to tailor your learning and showcase your skills for the job you want.
  3. Attend six virtual sessions, submit your portfolio for review and apply to receive a joint certificate from Loyalist College and Trenton MFRC.
