Meet Nadia 👋

Nadia has been part of SECC for four years, beginning her journey as an LBS Instructor in 2022 before gaining experience in Settlement and Career Hub. Throughout her time at SECC, she has continued to learn, grow and take on new opportunities, building valuable skills that support her in her current role as a Job Developer.

One of Nadia’s standout achievements was facilitating the AgriTech Program, an experience she found both challenging and rewarding. She helped bring the program to life by coordinating activities, assignments, guest speakers, tours and presentations, while also contributing significantly to curriculum development.

Nadia values teamwork, genuine human connection and working toward shared goals. What she appreciates most about SECC is the welcoming and supportive environment, where colleagues are always ready to offer encouragement and brighten someone's day. Outside of work, Nadia loves music and dance! She was previously a salsa instructor and still enjoys taking dance classes, especially jazz.

Thank you Nadia for your dedication to our team and community!

Where Learning Meets Opportunity. What happens when we bring employers and jobseekers together in a new way?

Through Career Hub, we’re building partnerships that turn industry expertise into hands-on learning opportunities, helping people develop skills and explore new career paths.

We spoke with Sienna Blakney, a training instructor involved in our Forklift Training program in partnership with LiUNA!625 Training Centre, about the power of sharing knowledge and how these training opportunities help participants build skills and become more employable. 🦺

Stronger partnerships. Stronger communities. Creating pathways to employment together.
