Program Description
The Self Employment Program provides entrepreneurial support and may also provide financial assistance to eligible unemployed individuals to assist them with the planning and start-up of their business.
Entrepreneurial support includes orientation, workshops, coaching, mentoring, and access to specific business training (some of which is mandatory) that will enable participants to develop and implement their business idea.
Steps to Apply
1. Contact an employment service provider (e.g., Nova Scotia Works Centre, ISANS, or Pheonix) to discuss eligibility for the Self Employment Program
2. Meet with a Case Manager to complete an employment assessment and develop a Return-to-Work Action Plan
3. If eligible, get referred to a Self Employment Coordinator for further assessment of your business idea
4. With assistance from your Case Manager, prepare and submit a program application to Employment Nova Scotia
