ENTJ, how about you? In this session we'll talk through how you can use personality tests and skills assessments to your advantage in the workplace — a little "Corporate Astrology"!

Led by Director of Programs at Canada Learning Code, Charlotte Nurse, we’ll review popular skills assessments and tests and learn to effectively communicate your soft skills in both workplace settings and during interviews. These tests can be used to help you better identify, understand, and articulate your skills and characteristics, and advocate for yourself in your job search and the workplace.

Taking place during Black History Month, this event is free for Black professionals to attend and others are welcome to join PWYC with a suggested donation of $29. This event is included as part of Career Collective membership.

About This Program

Who this is for

“I need some help figuring out how my skills fit into a tech-driven world”
“I have career development goals I want to meet, and I think technology could help me get there”
“I don’t work in tech, but I think knowing tech skills can make a difference for my work”
“I want to make my job search easier and more efficient”
“I’m looking for new tech-related skills to support my career growth”
“I use technology in my role, but I’m afraid of falling behind”

This event is open to all adults 18+, designed in a way that seeks to explicitly welcome Black professionals.

A more just and equitable future for technology in Canada means building programming that supports, empowers, and equips all learners who historically have been—and continue to be—underrepresented in tech. With that, the concept of personal identity can be extremely varied and complex, especially when considering the intersections of gender, race, ethnicity, economic class, sexuality and disability. We welcome Black professionals who also identify as cis women, trans women, trans men, non-binary people, and others who are marginalized because of their gender identity as well as Indigenous and other Racialized people, people in low-income communities, and newcomers to join this event.
