The Great Canadian Skills Mismatch 

Start the new year off right by attending our event!  

 Workforce Planning Hamilton and partner City of Hamilton, Economic Development Department invite local employers and human resource professionals to attend The Great Canadian Skills Mismatch: People Without Jobs, Jobs Without People and MORE, on January 8, 2015 from 8:00 am. to 10:30 am.

Our outstanding keynote speaker, Dr. Rick Miner, is back by popular demand! Dr. Miner will be sharing his recent research into future skills shortages including supply-demand, geographical, under-employed (over-skilled) and under-skilled/over-employment mismatches. He'll be offering his recommendations for solutions to achieve a more equal skills match.

Dr. Miner's discussion will be the perfect introduction for the relevance of WPH's survey for employers, the Hire Learning Survey (HLS), taking place from January 2 - 31, 2015.  

The HLS was released for the first time in January 2014 and provided key information to the community about our local labour market, potential skills shortages, and a range of HR issues and challenges.  The information collected in the HLS will provide our community with the most complete picture yet of the needs of employers in Hamilton.

Come and find out how your organization can be a promoter of the Hire Learning Survey!  Refreshments will be served.
