Some of you may remember how I got my start at AMI, but if you’re new here’s the scoop.

I attended an Employment Skills Boot Camp at the CNIB in Calgary. It was such a great experience, and I was able to meet like-minded people in Alberta who are blind or partially sighted.

Along with making great friends, we were also taught some very valuable skills that not only help us in interviews, but are transferable once you get a job! In this weeks segment, I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing a participant of a virtual camp held in Saskatchewan. For the participants, it seemed to be a very different experience than my own. To learn more, tune into AMI This Week tonight.
