triOS, Eastern College offer bursaries to laid-off HMV employees

triOS College Business Technology Healthcare and Eastern College have responded to the closure of all Canada-based HMV stores by offering $1.5K bursaries to employees who have been laid off as a result. The bursaries will also be available to the thousands of employees who have been laid off due to the closures of other retail chains including Danier, Jacob, and Smart Set. Recipients of the bursaries will be able to put them toward career training diploma programs. “As career colleges, triOS and Eastern College provide training to get laid-off employees back into the workforce,” says triOS Corporation President Stuart Bentley. “Our bursary is a financial contribution to help people explore their career options.” triOS
