The ONE Hub aims to remove barriers to self-employment and to support the social and economic integration of current and aspiring entrepreneurial newcomers by providing them with training, business support, funding advice, networking and mentorship opportunities, and by connecting them with other key players within the ecosystem.

 

Why you should join?

We provide training, business coaching, mentorship, work shadowing, financial literacy support, in addition to our specialized workshops, alumni program and many networking opportunities. Our services will help newcomers learn about doing business in Canada and prepare them to become successful entrepreneurs. ONE Hub is a one-stop shop for aspiring entrepreneurial newcomers. 

About Us

Founded by Local Agencies Serving Immigrants, a coalition of settlement agencies in Ottawa, World Skills is a non-profit employment centre dedicated exclusively to the employment needs of newcomers and to the needs of the local labour market. We help newcomers incorporate into the workforce through employment competency building, job search training and support, cultural competency building and language training.

 

We connect talented newcomers to employers in the public, private and not-for-profit sectors. We partner with employers to help them meet their labour market needs by understanding their business requirements, finding and pre-screening internationally trained newcomers and offering cross-cultural training.
