The objective is to help Canadians of all ages make informed decisions and become self-reliant in connecting with appropriate employment and learning opportunities and managing their careers in the rapidly changing labour markets of the knowledge era. Advisory Committees are struck at the beginning of every project, and they guide the project through all five phases.
All advisers have equal influence in project decision-making.
Advisory Committee members are not paid for their time. Their organization must consider the project sufficiently important to its goals and objectives to cover their professional services. The role of Advisors is not passive. In addition to contributing their wisdom to the development team in all phases of the project cycle from conception onward, they organize the selection of pilot sites in their provinces, territories or states, organize training events, coordinate local evaluation and analysis activities, coordinate promotion activities like media events, presentations at conferences and professional development events, articles in journals and newsletters, and in general act as the local champion to ensure the end product will be made available to as many potential beneficiaries as possible. Where possible, the responsibility for and costs associated with all of these activities are borne by appropriate local agencies.
