BC is currently in the 3rd stage of re-opening its economy. As more and more business re-open their doors, a transition of working from home and back to the office and shared workspaces will happen, along with students to go back to school for the fall semester.
While the economy re-opens, some are waiting to hear if they will be able to go back to their jobs or even have a job to go back to. The reality is that we will all go back to a normal, or a new normal in the work environment. Finding that balance between work and home life is a struggle for most of us but having the training and skills you need for the career you want can be more of a challenge.
So, what are the options?
If you are stuck at home currently, waiting to hear if you will go back to your old job, then this maybe the best opportunity for you to go-back-school like so many are doing this Fall. You may never get another opportunity to have as much time on your hands as we currently have. This is your time and your chance to get the right education, training, and skills required to be qualified and be able to apply to that job you have been thinking of.
