This is our first-ever in-person program for employer relations professionals. These testimonials from our virtual Employer Engagement Academy reflect what participants can expect:

"The Employer Engagement Academy was an incredibly helpful resource. The workshops, panels, and networking opportunities were invaluable. This was a perfect place to build a roadmap for the future and assess my strategic approach to employer engagement. I can't recommend it enough!"

Monica Barry

Associate Director, Employer Relations & Outreach, University of Chicago

"I highly recommend this program to anyone in the employer relations field, who is interested in learning, sharing best practices, hearing from employer panels, joining in on lively discussions, and building their network, not to mention, receiving a micro-credential once completed! This program was informative, engaging, and probably the best PD I have ever been a part of. Money well spent!"

Kelleen Schonfeldt

Partnership Coordinator (Allied Health Sciences), Career Centre, Cambrian College

"I highly recommend this program to professionals involved in employer engagement. The program integrates various elements of the employer engagement experience and introduces participants to innovative ideas and diverse perspectives. It also facilitates a deeper understanding of personal strengths and areas for improvement in approaching employer engagement. This program is invaluable not only for newcomers but also for seasoned professionals, providing a platform to exchange insights and knowledge."

Katherine Byron

Assistant Director/Coordinator of Employer Engagement for Students & Alumni, Coastal Carolina University

"This was a great program and I have many takeaways for my "idea" whiteboard in my office. As employer developers, we often attend events and conferences for the main purpose of building and fostering new relationships with PD being an additional bonus. This was a great opportunity to give relationship builders their own PD exclusively focused on learning, growing and planning for the future. I would highly recommend!"
