What is Insertech’s Insertion Program?

Insertech’s insertion program is a comprehensive initiative offering a qualifying course accompanied by psychosocial support. Its main objective is to assist participants in their personal and professional development, promoting individual fulfillment and the creation of social ties.

The 6-month program offers personalized support to help participants integrate into the job market or return to school. Participants have the opportunity to learn trades such as computer assembler, warehouse clerk, sales clerk or office clerk, broadening their professional prospects and increasing their chances of success.

Testimonials from Former Participants

At 20 years old, I was attempting to complete my secondary education, but it wasn’t going very well. I was searching for something else. Insertech accepted me. I found it very challenging at the beginning, but I persevered. It allowed me to confirm my interest in computer science while also working on my self-confidence and stress management. Towards the end of the program, I completed an internship at iWeb, which later hired me, and I have been working there ever since. I’m considering pursuing studies in computer science to advance my career at iWeb. Thanks to Insertech, which felt like a family where I never felt judged, but rather encouraged and supported.

Having arrived in Quebec in January 2010 at the age of 26, I couldn’t find a job and felt isolated. I was lucky enough to join Insertech. It was a valuable training experience with a very professional team that I will never forget. Many opportunities arose for me after my time at Insertech. Today, I work as an IT technician at Dominion Blueline Inc. I am the network manager’s assistant. I thank the entire Insertech Angus team. Congratulations and thank you for what you do for the environment and for young people!

– Boubacar

I arrived at Insertech at the age of 21, wary and rebellious due to a difficult past. My journey there was one of the best investments of my life, spanning six months. Not only did Insertech help me (more than I had anticipated) achieve my professional goals, but it also supported me with other issues over the years, which I never expected to receive help with. I am now a graduate and have been working in my field since 2008. I know that Insertech played a significant role in this, and for that, I sincerely thank them!
