On October 19, 2006, Sylvia Barnard, President of Cambrian College, and Denis Hubert, President of Collège Boréal, together with Job Connect representatives, officially opened a new Job Connect centre in the Place Bonaventure Mall in Chelmsford. The centre in Chelmsford is one of two new Job Connect sites in Greater Sudbury that bridge the gap between individuals seeking employment and employers seeking personnel. The other Job Connect center, located in the Val Est Mall in Val Caron, will have its official opening on November 9.

The two new Job Connect centres provide bilingual, convenient, and accessible employment services from storefront locations in area malls. They will be staffed by personnel from Cambrian College and Collège Boréal, who are partners in the initiative.
