Training and Development

  At Gamma-Dynacare, professional development is not a one-time event, it’s part of our culture.

Our continued business success demands a fully trained workforce that rises to the challenges of maintaining our leadership position. That’s why Gamma-Dynacare offers numerous learning opportunities for our staff to grow—both professionally and personally.

Tuition Reimbursement

Gamma-Dynacare recognizes the need to enhance professional skills and support the unique career development goals of each employee. To this end, we will reimburse a percentage of the tuition of external courses or workshops, provided they are job related, directly relevant to our business needs and designed to improve the skills, abilities and performance of the employee.

Lunch and Learn

How would you like to integrate learning into your daily work? Throughout the year, Gamma-Dynacare offers employees a chance to integrate learning into their daily work. Our Lunch and Learn presentations focus on topics of general interest to employees, including financial planning, active living and stress management.

Learning Centre

Our Learning Centres let staff members learn on their own time, at their own pace, where and when they want. Each Learning Centre offers a variety of learning media, from books and periodicals to videos, audiotapes and e-learning. Employees can also use Learning Centres as places to meet with colleagues and to learn as a group using our dedicated PC, TV/VCR and audio system. Each Learning Centre has a Career Corner dedicated to in-house and external professional development opportunities.

Annual Symposium

When the leaves begin to fall, it’s time for Gamma-Dynacare’s Annual Continuing Education Symposium. This day of professional development covers topics that range from future health care trends and the latest technology to enhancing interpersonal skills. Here’s what some attendees had to say about their participation:

“Great topics, excellent speakers, lots of useful information.”

Rose Patron, Medical Laboratory Technologist, Hematology

"Thanks for all your efforts in organizing these sessions. I am sure we have all gone home with some new lessons in ‘changes’ for bettering ourselves and our environments. We can never stop learning! Thanks Gamma-Dynacare for caring for people!”

Lana Tuli, Leasing Administrator, Finance Department
