From Counting People to Making People Count: Workplace Inclusion Conference

Dates: Thursday September 20 to Friday September 21, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM

Non-profit and public sector organizations face challenges as they try to comply with equity-related legislation, respond to the changing demographics, and create inclusive and effective organizations – all within fiscal constraints. This conference will help further equity and inclusion practice for non-profit and public sector organizations. It will provide an excellent opportunity for senior managers, line managers, human resource staff, and Diversity Officers to receive important training from experts in the field, learn from each other, and learn from organizations that have successfully implemented various diversity initiatives.

Participants are able to choose from a number of concurrent sessions according to their interest and needs. Workshops include the following.

  • Creating an Inclusive Organizational Culture
