LEPC Pilot

Under the LEPC pilot project, WDB worked to strengthen and broaden partnerships to identify local priorities, as well as challenges and opportunities with respect to workforce development planning. 

WDB Secretariat (Board of Directors) – provided support for the following areas:

• Administration (organizing and facilitating meetings, events, etc.)
• Labour Market Information collection, analysis & dissemination to local community stakeholders
• Stakeholder liaison, engagement and partnership building

Central Planning Table – was the primary consultative body composed of key community representatives (such as service providers, employer groups, different levels of government) that provided oversight to subject matter working groups and worked collaboratively with the community stakeholders to make recommendations to the Secretariat.
