My name is Dmitri Stroilov. I started school at Centre Anjou. I followed the professional training (DEP) program in machining techniques for one year. After that, I moved to the next level and studied for six months to get my certification and professional specialization (ASP).

I started Spectra Prenium in 2009. I was in training for 2-3 weeks. This was an opportunity to acquire job-ready abilities to advance my career, and it gave me a real sense of pride and accomplishment. Then, I gained experience and became highly skilled. My experienced coworker helped me communicate. I am using paper to write and communicate with my supervisor and my coworkers.

L’ÉTAPE helped me find a job as a machinist and I am very happy about it. Thanks to all of you!

L’ÉTAPE has allowed me to acquire more self-confidence and improve my skills in job interviews. They helped me prepare for my job search. At L’ÉTAPE, the staff is very friendly, polite and reliable, especially my employment counsellor. L’ÉTAPE offers a well-organized service that is faithful to its name (Étape means step in French). They offered me a very good and efficient service.

During the training session, we have the opportunity to actively participate in the workshop and we benefit from the encouragement of other participants as well as the dynamic support of a qualified team. Congratulations to all for the great work!

What to say about L’ÉTAPE?

It’s a castle built, stone by stone, by all of the members and their respective counsellor in an atmosphere of harmony and well-being. It’s up to us to play it right to ensure our rose will become a garden of roses, and that our desire of succeeding will surprise our detractors.

Long life to L’ÉTAPE and see you to celebrate your fiftieth anniversary!
