“In the short time I have known you, and been exposed to
CPC, I am impressed with the professionalism, the willingness to support the
success of members, the breadth of services you provide in training, marketing,
and support, and your prompt response to all my questions and requests.”
Faith West
“I had always wanted a career
association that was “distinctly Canadian” so when I was asked to be a founding
member of Career Professionals of Canada I jumped at the opportunity. CPC
offers leadership and volunteer opportunities and a chance for members to learn
from the collective expertise that exists in the group. Members are also
encouraged to submit their work for publication or contribute articles or
comments for the media. These exposures lend additional credibility to
the organization and its members. I am pleased to be associated with this
dynamic Canadian organization.”
Daisy Wright, The Wright Career Solution
“As a member of Career Professionals of
Canada, I have attended the annual Professional Development Conference to learn
and network. This has increased my business through referrals and
subcontracting relationships. I have also shared and gained information by
networking with colleagues in the e-Group, capitalizing on the fact that other
members offer a Canadian – and oftentimes local perspective when I seek advice
or help.”
Marian Bernard, The Regency Group
“I have increased my business by using
the Career Professionals of Canada’s logo in my marketing material. I find that
it helps to close a sale to let prospects know that I am a member.”
Karen Shane, The Business Writing Network
"Being a member of the Career
Professionals of Canada has really raised my business profile as well as
connecting me with a whole new group of experienced, professional associates
that I can call on for advice and potential partnerships. Since being a member
and directly as a result of CPC's connections I have spoken at a major job fair
and been profiled in The Globe & Mail and Toronto Sun, this coverage has
led directly to other engagements and new clients as well as increased my
credibility. For the career professional in Canada there is not another
organization that can offer its members so much benefit."
Paul Copcutt, Square Peg Solution
“Career Professionals of Canada is made
up of a diversified group of professionals that are willing to share their
knowledge with other members of the organization, which I find extremely
valuable. I am most impressed by the leadership provided by Sharon Graham. I
find her to be very approachable, and a very genuine person. Sharon is
more than willing to provide advice and guidance to the newer members.”
Kathleen Weston, A Resume to Remember
“As a member, I have enriched my
knowledge with respect to marketing initiatives. Members have steered potential
business my way (and vice versa) – a mutually beneficial network indeed. I also
had the opportunity to be involved in the development of the Certified Resume
Strategist and was awarded the key accreditation supplying credibility so
valued in my business.”
Lynda Reeves, Added Value Resumes
“I thoroughly enjoy being a part
of a dynamic, talented, and collaborative virtual team. I am so impressed
with the expertise and I've learned so much from both the people and the
activities we've engaged in. I especially appreciated facilitating
teleclasses – something new for me – and volunteering at The National Job Fair
and Training Expo.”
Heather Erskine, Erskine & Associates
“Career Professionals of Canada has
provided me with a supportive network of colleagues with a diverse range of
skills in the field of Career Consulting. I have been impressed by the
energetic, creative and well-organized leadership of this organization. I am
continually amazed at the many wonderful, ongoing opportunities provided to
members who wish to participate.”
Julie Fulford, Coaching Solutions
“Certainly, my membership over one
short year has done amazing things for me and my practice. I have led two
committees and obtained by Certified Resume Strategist and Certified Interview
Strategist Credentials. I have spoken at three conferences and have been able
to contribute to articles in The Globe and Mail, the Toronto Star, and The Sun.
Through Career Professionals of Canada, I have developed great friendships,
professional relationships, and a sense of peer support/family, which is
important to me in my private practice. In all the years that I have been a
member of other organizations, I have never gained so much!”
