NEW: September 29, 2026 – Now Accepting Applications for Collège Boréal’s Francophone PSW Learn and Earn Program for Existing LTC Staff

The Learn and Earn Program helps train existing long-term care staff, such as resident support personnel and dietary aides, to become PSWs without leaving their home communities. The program consists of full-time online coursework followed by a paid clinical placement at the long-term care home where the participant is currently employed.

Collège Boréal is continuing to enroll students for the October 2026 cohort of the Francophone PSW Learn and Earn Program, which is set to begin on October 19th.

Please visit their webpage for more information: https://collegeboreal.ca/formation/programme-accelere-dapprentissage-remunere-pour-pssp/

Registration for the October cohort closes on October 9th, 2026.

NOUVEAU: Le 29 septembre 2026 – Nous acceptons maintenant des candidatures pour le programme du Collège Boréal destiné aux PSSP francophones actuellement en poste dans un établissement de soins de longue durée

En août 2026, le gouvernement de l’Ontario a annoncé un investissement de 3,89 millions de dollars sur trois ans pour prolonger le Programme accéléré d’apprentissage rémunéré pour PSSP au Collège Boréal afin de former jusqu’à 120 PSSP d’ici 2029.

Le programme d’apprentissage rémunéré permet de former des membres du personnel des foyers de soins de longue durée, notamment le personnel de soutien aux résidents et les préposés et préposées aux services alimentaires, pour leur permettre de devenir PSSP sans avoir à quitter leur collectivité d’appartenance. Le programme comprend des cours en ligne à temps plein, suivis d’un stage clinique rémunéré dans le foyer de soins de longue durée où la personne participante travaille actuellement.

Les inscriptions sont toujours en cours au Collège Boréal pour la cohorte d’octobre 2026 du Programme accéléré d’apprentissage rémunéré pour PSSP à l’intention du personnel francophone, qui commencera le 19 octobre.

Nous vous invitons à visiter leur page Web pour de plus amples renseignements.

La période d’inscription pour la cohorte d’octobre se termine le 9 octobre 2026.
