Supporting business growth in Ontario.
The OCC offers programs that support the growth and capacity of Ontario businesses. Through the Discover Ability Network, we connect businesses with tools and supports that help them become more inclusive employers and tap into the persons with disabilities talent pool. Through our export and trade events, businesses have the opportunity to meet with foreign governments and trade delegations to help them make new business connection and expand into global markets.
Connect with us to learn how our programs can benefit your organization.
Talent Opportunities Program
Discover Ability Network
When it comes to hiring people with disabilities, the business opportunity is irrefutable. The Discover Ability Network provides tools and supports through in-person workshops, webinars and online resources to help businesses understand the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, why and how to become a more inclusive employer, and how to hire and retain talent from the persons with disabilities labour pool.
