|Hey there! My name is Trinity and I work as a student for the Centre of Abilities Management and Workplace Wellness. I am an undergraduate honours psychology student who loves anything to do with the brain, human behaviour, and statistics! I also have a DEC from Heritage College in Social Sciences and Humanities concentrating in psychology. Other than psychology, I am also interested in Indigenous studies, the opioid crisis, and policing!

|Hey there! My name is Trinity and I work as a student for the Centre of Abilities Management and Workplace Wellness with CIRNAC. I absolutely love my position and the team I work with. I do so many different things that is hard to summarize my position. Put simply, I provide mental health program support , generate data reports, and assist in the implementation of the 2021-2024 ISC and CIRNAC Workplace Well-Being and Mental Health Strategy.

If there is anything I would encourage you to do during your work term I would tell you to network and join the YPN! The YPN is a great place to meet people and learn about applying yourself, roads in government, and learning from mentors. If this sounds interesting to you please send an email to rjp-ypn@rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca and subscribe to the newsletter!

If there is anything I would encourage you to do during your work term it would be to join the YPN and to not be fearful of asking questions! The YPN is a great place to meet people and learn about applying yourself, roads in government, and learning from mentors. If this sounds interesting to you please send an email to rjp-ypn@rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca and subscribe to the newsletter! As for asking questions, your learning and ability to succeed in your current position is reliant on being able to ask questions and be transparent. In addition, if you are ever in a crunch and need support, be sure to brainstorm some possible solutions before reaching out to co-workers or your supervisor. This will show that you are proactive and are offering support in finding solutions.

Most of all, make the most of your experience by connecting with your team and other students.

My advice for onboarding students is do not feel afraid to ask questions. There is a lot of stuff that flies at you in the first couple weeks, and sometimes my supervisors would just throw a bunch of info at me and at the end say, "you get all that"? It is okay to say no, as it is so much better to be on the same page than to be guessing what you should do next. Everyone empathizes with the onboarding process so yeah, do not feel afraid to be honest :)
