The Labrador Aboriginal Training Partnership offers a Cultural Awareness Workshop to small and larger groups as requested. This 3-4 hour presentation was designed in consultation with the three Aboriginal groups in Labrador.

On this page we list current employment opportunities that available with our business partners.

If you are an LATP client, you may be eligible for a wage subsidy to help you gain employment. It is not a pre-requisite that you were enrolled in LATP sponsored training but there are some conditions around participation. All Aboriginal people in Labrador from Innu Nation, NunatuKavut (Labrador Metis Nation), and Nunatsiavut, are eligible to participate in this program.

If you are an employer, and interested in hiring one of our aboriginal clients, we may be able to provide a subsidy for a set period of time.

If you are an Aboriginal person looking for meaningful work, we may be able to match you with an employer.

Please contact Lois Roberts, Wage Subsidy Coordinator for more information. lroberts@latp.ca 709-896-3500 ext 231
