Career Gateway SurveyCareer Gateway Survey

Career Development Services has partnered with Chamber of Commerce organizations across PEI to deliver a pilot project entitled Collaborative Solutions – Youth and the Labour Force.

Chamber organizations on the island have been working to help address the issues of out-migration of labour and an aging workforce on PEI.

One component of the project is this survey which will allow the development of "Career Gateway", an online resource which will provide youth with labour market information specific to the PEI business community.

Without your input, we will be unable to accurately represent Prince Edward Island’s labour market. The questionnaire should take you between 3-5 minutes to complete.
