2009/10 LMDA Plan - Engagement Sessions

The Ministry of Housing and Social Development, in collaboration with Service Canada, completed its face-to-face and online engagement sessions for the 2009/10 LMDA plan.

The annual plan outlines the Province’s priorities, goals and objectives in utilizing EI Part II programs and services to meet the labour market needs in British Columbia and we are interested in hearing from those directly involved in the development, analysis and implementation of labour market services. The sessions were formatted using a variation on the open space conference with breakout groups and a parking lot in order to ensure participants had full opportunity to provide input on current labour market information and programming priorities following the transition.
