ABM College Highlights Strong Job Outlook for Personal Support Workers in Toronto

Job Bank forecasts a "Very Good" three-year outlook for PSWs in the Toronto Region; ABM College's in-class Certificate program trains locally.

TORONTO, CANADA, September 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Job Bank, the Government of Canada's national employment service, projects a "Very Good" three-year outlook (2025-2027) for Personal Support Workers in the Toronto Region, citing continued demand across long-term care homes, home care agencies, and hospitals. The same source lists hourly wages for the role in the Toronto Region ranging from a low of $19.00 to a median of $23.00 and a high of $30.00, in data last updated in late 2025.

ABM College, a private career college with a campus in Scarborough, Toronto, offers a Personal Support Worker Certificate program in Toronto built around that demand. The 28-week, in-class program combines classroom instruction with 300 hours of supervised clinical placement, and covers topics including personal care, safety and mobility support, and care for clients living with dementia and other cognitive conditions.

The program is delivered entirely in-class at ABM College's Scarborough campus. Students interested in personal support worker training in Toronto complete their coursework and clinical placement hours in person, rather than online, throughout the 28-week program.

ABM College's Personal Support Worker Certificate program is eligible for the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) for qualifying students. The college also partners with Windmill Microlending, a nonprofit that provides loans to newcomers to Canada, to help students finance their education. Current tuition for the program is $3,700 CAD.

"Personal Support Workers play an essential role in Ontario's healthcare system, and demand for well-trained PSWs in the Toronto region continues to grow," said Dr. Mohammad Baten, President and CEO of ABM College. "Our Personal Support Worker Certificate program is built to give students hands-on, in-class training and real clinical experience, so they are ready to meet that demand upon graduation."

In a recent video published by ABM College, Victor Bankole, a graduate of the Personal Support Worker Certificate program in Toronto, described his experience training at the college and the support he received from instructors and family throughout the program.

ABM College operates campuses in several Canadian cities and offers career-focused certificate and diploma programs across the health, business, and technology sectors. More information about the program, including schedule, admissions requirements, and next start dates, is available on ABM College's website.
