The Targeted Initiative for Older Workers(TOW) will help unemployed older workers in communities experiencing ongoing high unemployment and/or with a high reliance
on a single industry affected by downsizing. Projects will be designed to improve the employability of participants from 55
to 64 years of age, and may assist them through activities such as prior learning assessment, skills upgrading, and experience
in new fields of work.
The Targeted Initiative for Older Workers is cost-shared between the Government of Canada
and provinces and territories. Participating provinces and territories will be responsible for targeting programming and the
funding of projects.
