R3USSIR IS LOOKING FOR THE BEST BOSSES IN ESTRIE 🏆 | |
“My Boss Is the Best” contest gets off to a strong start, with over 220 entries in just one week! | |
For its 7th year, we are inviting young people to nominate employers who support their work‑study balance and encourage their educational success. Until April 12, youth can submit their nominations and explain how their employer supports them in their academic journey. In total, nine employers – one per MRC – will be recognized as the Best Bosses and as employers committed to educational success. | |
The Contest, Live in the Community!
Since the contest began, booths and activities have been set up in various locations, in collaboration with the Estrie Youth Employment Centers, to promote the contest and raise awareness among young people about the importance of balancing school and work.
👉 Spread the word within your networks and encourage youth to participate! | | | |

Dedicated web pages are now available to learn more and follow the project’s developments.
This project aims to provide companies with practical and sustainable tools to facilitate the integration of new technologies, while promoting the development of workers’ foundational skills. It is carried out with financial support from the Gouvernement du Québec. | | | |

À GO, on lit! Connecting with High School Students | |
This winter, two À GO, on s’jase! sessions brought together Grade 7 students on February 16 at École de l’Escale (Val-des-Sources) and March 17 at École du Phare (Sherbrooke). Organized by R3USSIR and the school communities as part of À GO, on lit!, these events were a great success.
Warm welcomes, flawless organization, and inspiring creativity made these moments truly memorable for the students. And what about Kevin Raphael! Generous and engaging, he took the time to connect with students— even granting an interview to student radio stations!
Thanks to the school communities, À GO, on lit! and Kevin for their dedication and invaluable collaboration! | | | |
