Opening Doors - Helping Our Children Discover Successful Careers This toolkit has been created to assist you in helping your child discover successful careers in Manitoba. We have included an abundance of information and would like to thank Volunteer Manitoba for providing a great deal of the information throughout this toolkit. Although Manitoba schools are providing career-planning activities, research shows that students are more successful if parents and schools work together. It truly does "take a village to raise a child". The toolkit content has been organized into sections - each section contains information and website linkages to direct to further references if required. Career Exploration: Programs and websites that provided your child with career awareness opportunities and free aptitude and interest assessments. Advanced Manufacturing Possibilities Education & Training: An extensive collection of educational institutions and training programs.
