Juno College of Technology

Toronto’s Juno College of Technology transitioned to a 4-day work week model this year to benefit both staff and students. Classes are not held on Fridays, meaning that students have an extra day to catch up on work and staff can spend the day doing whatever they want.

Juno College has several open positions on its careers page, including instructors for a variety of subjects. However, talented applicants are always welcome to submit a general application because the college is always looking for new team members.
