Stratagem Group, the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, and Magnet are working together to connect young Canadians to opportunities in Ontario’s creative industries.

With support from the Skills Development Fund, we’re working with employers across industries like film, television, gaming, and animation to offer 8-week placements where post-secondary students can build skills, experience, and learn about career paths in those fields.

Stratagem is proud to work with partners on this project, which supports the most valuable asset in the production process—the talented workers who make the content we consume. This partnership will help students connect to placements based on how they match the workstyle characteristics and personality traits that help an individual thrive in that role.

Lumina is a job matching and career support tool developed by Magnet and OTEC. Using a questionnaire supported by Lumina Learning’s Spark technology, users are asked to indicate how they identify with a series of statements. Lumina will then share a report with insights into each job seeker’s personality, and the strengths they can offer in a professional environment.
