Do you need help to get back into the workforce? Would you like to improve your French skills while acquiring business experience?

What is a practice firm?

A practice firm is a realistic simulation of a business with all of its administrative functions. The commercial transactions, which are carried out with 4,000 similar practice firms around the world, allow these firms to perfectly recreate all of the facets of local and international business. As a matter of fact, everything resembles reality except the actual production and exchange of money, which remain fictitious.

Every practice firm is linked to an existing real business, which shares its expertise by providing working models and by offering, when necessary, advice on how to stay on the proper path of reality.

You learn on the job.

You work in a simulated office with all of the usual departments where you get work experience while upgrading your job skills (including French and English and office software). You will also receive support in developing effective job-search techniques.

A practice firm can offer work experience in these sectors:

Accounting
Secretarial Work/Reception
Translating
Purchasing
Human Resources
Sales
Telecommunications
Communications/Marketing
Graphic Designing
Computers

Local practice firms are financed by Emploi-Québec.
