1. Introduction

Niagara Workforce Planning Board is utilizing this brief survey as part of our commitment to ensure that activities that impact, influence or suport the Niagara Labour Market Plan 2009-2013 are captured and included in the Annual Report Card to the Community.

This survey is designed to track projects and initiatives that are currently underway to address labour market issues and challenges in Niagara. Data collected will help demonstrate the integrated approaches being achieved between existing local initiatives and the four strategic planning areas from the Niagara Labour Market Plan (see list below)

This information will be incorporated into our Niagara Labour Market Plan 2009-2013...A Vision in Action annual update. It will further help us in our continued efforts to develop a local labour market planning process that is integrated, relevant, responsive, efficient, and accountable.

The key priorities outlined in the Niagara Labour Market Plan 2009-2013 are provided below for your reference.

Please note that this form is structured to track one project/initiative per form. Should your organization have additional projects/initiatives that you would like to report, please complete one form for each.

NWPB is committed to sharing survey results with all respondents - follow up correspondence will be directed to the contact name and address you provide at the end.
