Learning from Canada’s Leaders in Workforce Development
Throughout 2021/2022, Magnet and EnPoint were honoured to bring together leaders, experts, and changemakers from across Canada for the Building Future Ready Communities (BFRC) series. Together, we hosted 13 conversations featuring more than 30 panelists from diverse sectors, regions, and backgrounds, all sharing their ideas for fostering an inclusive future of work.
With voices from post-secondary institutions, community based employment agencies, employers, and industry associations, BFRC served as a platform for insights on topics like:
- Integrating different cultures in the workplace
- Reskilling for greater prosperity
- Exploring opportunities in rural communities
While these discussions took place over the course of a year, these insights remain relevant, highlighting important insights and resources for all stakeholders in skills training, career development, policy, and education.
In an effort to extend the learnings from these discussions, Magnet and EnPoint have put together a comprehensive report that recaps each discussion and acts as a learning resource for all individuals and organizations interested in the future of work.
You can download the report here (French version here), which includes key takeaways from each discussion as well as programs and resources that stakeholders in employment, career development, education, and policy can access to advance their own efforts in building an inclusive future of work.
Our hope is that this report will serve as a resource to continue to learn from these discussions, access and connect with the programs and organizations highlighted, and reflect on themes like solving challenges through collaboration and future-proofing Canada’s workforce.
Magnet and EnPoint would like to thank all of our attendees, panelists, and hosts who made this series engaging, informative, and inspiring.
