Title
Regional Development of English Language Entrepreneurial Services
Abstract
YES is a non-profit organization that provides English language employability and entrepreneurship services in Quebec, principally those on the Island of Montreal. The areas of services offered are job search, entrepreneurship, mentorship and artists’ programs. In response to requests from the organizations in the regions outside of Montreal for similar services, YES has begun to develop support and delivery mechanisms that respond to the unique needs of the regions1 within a context of building economic viability. This report provides the results of the work carried out in 2011-12 to look at the feasibility of offering YES-type services in the regions, as well as the planning and development activities that should be carried out to support a broader economic development amongst English-speaking communities in Quebec.
