PET OF THE WEEK
Sunshine
Check out this glorious fluff! Don’t you want to just run
your fingers through it? Be my guest – I love the way that feels! I’ll tell you all about it while you pet me. I’ll also instruct you on all my favourite spots. I expect a good long petting session followed by lap time and a snooze. That’s all I need to be happy! I may be an older girl, but I have plenty of zip in my step. Toys? I love ‘em. Treats? I love ‘em even more! Pets and snuggles? Well … you get the idea. I’d really like to spend my golden years in the company of a nice adult or two who will spoil me for the rest of my days. One condition: I would prefer to be the only cat in the home! I will reciprocate by brightening your every day! Let’s go home soon!

Considering that the shortage of testers is expected to continue for the next while, you might want to consider training some new staff. As you suggested, the new Canada-Alberta Job Grant will help employers train the staff they need by providing up to $10,000 per employee for training. Employers will be expected to contribute up to $5,000 per employee for a total maximum of $15,000. The strength of this program is that it is employer driven – employers decide who gets trained and what type of training may be needed for new and existing employees. Through the program, employers will be invested in the training decisions that will equip their current and future workers with the skills they need to fill available jobs. For more information on the Canada-Alberta Job Grant program, visit: http://albertacanada.com/jobgrant. In the weeks to come, the webpage will be updated with the roll-out of the program. The program may begin accepting employer applications as early as September, but it’s best to check http://albertacanada.com/jobgrant frequently as new information is posted. Good luck!
