How do Talent’s LEARNING SOLUTIONS differ?
INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT
TALENT's microcredentials are designed in collaboration with leading technology partners and employers to provide experiential skills development opportunities that focus on both technical and human skills that are in high demand.
SYNCHRONOUS LEARNING
In addition to skills development at their own pace with self-directed courses, TALENT customers can take advantage of live webinars and masterclasses to complement their learning experience.
ARTIFACT CREATION
Central to the TALENT approach is providing customers the ability to articulate, or showcase, their skills. By creating artifacts that meet industry requirements, learners can more effectively signal their job readiness to employers.
CUSTOMIZED DELIVERY
Instead of bundling courses as part of a larger certificate, TALENT allows customers to focus only on the specific courses they need. It’s a value-minded approach that allows customers to tailor their experience.
CERTIFICATION ALIGNMENT
Wherever possible, TALENT’s skills and courses are purpose-built to align with industry certifications, preparing customers for the next step in their development process.
DIGITAL BADGING
Upon successful completion of a TALENT microcredential, customers are awarded a digital badge that can be added to any digital portfolio or platform to articulate the skills acquired.
The Ontario Tech Talent Initiative will be of significant help to small- and medium-sized enterprises with their skills training needs. I also see incredible value for large enterprises who face the challenge of recruiting and retaining employees with the evolving skills sets employers need.

I love seeing our students succeed, from having a resume they are proud of, to nailing the interview. It is an amazing feeling when our students secure co-op’s, internships, or employment in their desired industry. The teams at both TALENT and Ontario Tech University provide our students with the tools they need to obtain the skills they need to achieve their employment goals!
