A field trip to the BC Legislature!

Earlier this month, our team joined CEO, Janet in Victoria as she presented to the Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services, advocating for stronger workforce planning, recognition of employment services as essential infrastructure, and greater investment in community workforce partnerships across BC.

It was incredibly inspiring to see Janet's advocacy in person for such an important cause. Go Janet!

Join us for this month’s Lunch & Learn with Steve Miller and Denise Reimer's presentation: "The Next Question & the Evolution of CDP".

Career development has evolved through two defining questions: "What is available?" and "Where do you fit?" Steve Miller's Implicit Career Search theory proposes the field is ready for a third: "What will you contribute?" This session explores how to help clients answer that question — and how to turn their answer into a career. Spoiler: it's easier than it sounds.
