Update on LMDA Implementation
Jen Liptrot, ACTEW's ED, attended the LMDA Service Delivery Advisory Group meeting on September 6, 2006 and has the following updates to share:
The Ministry of Training, Colleges, and Universities (MTCU) is taking a slow and steady approach to the planning, which seems likely to result in a better, more inclusive process that builds stakeholder engagement.
MTCU is planning a preliminary series of consultations over the next couple months. Ideally one planning session will happen in each of their 4 regions (Central, Eastern, North and West), facilitated by the new MTCU Regional Directors. Preliminary thinking is that these could be "blended sessions" to include municipal service providers (OW), reps from other provincial ministries, community-based training and employment providers, colleges, employers/organized labour/education, and the literacy sector. The goals of the sessions will include soliciting feedback on future planning process, discussing business continuity, and initiating exchange of program information.
We’ll share information about the consultations as it becomes available.
