This session will provide an overview of workforce development programs within the Ministry of Advanced Education & Skills Training.  This will include current initiatives and opportunities for CETABC organizations to support workforce development, and address labour shortages within their communities, and across the Province. 

Creative engagement is a tool I use to facilitate whole brain thinking, to generate ideas, and to engage all participants in dialogue. Creative engagement through art-based projects and exercises encourages “being present and seeing what's there.” It equalizes everyone in the room and fosters safe space and dynamic dialogue.

Polarization is a social dynamic in which people come to see differences of opinion as intolerable and threatening, and imagine the social world as divided into two opposing camps – "us" versus "them." Our goal is to understand how polarization is affecting our communities, and how we as public educators can intervene.  Join members of the Courageous Dialogues: Moving Beyond Polarization research team for this presentation on preliminary research.
