When local residents know they can stay in their communities and get the training and opportunities they need to have robust careers, it spells success for economic development. The Vernon and Area Workforce Development Roundtable made this happen by building relationships in public and private sector networks, delivering a community-based communications strategy, and collaborating to deliver local training that is responsive to employer needs. 

Join us to learn more about stories of workforce development initiatives around the province, and share some of your own successes as well. 

Presenters: Vernon and Area Workforce Development Roundtable (Kevin Poole, City of Vernon, and Richard Toperczer, Regional Economic Operations); WorkBC Find Your Fit Tour (Davin Greenwell, Ministry of Advanced Education & Skills Training)
