Growing Your Workforce Conference


The Growing Your Workforce Conference is an annual event organized by the Workforce Boards of Ontario. Each year, the conference is hosted by a different workforce development board. This year, the conference will be hosted by Workforce WindsorEssex, and will take place November 21 from 1 p.m. – 5 p.m. and November 22 from 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. at St Clair College Centre for the Arts in Windsor, Ontario.

The conference focuses on addressing workforce development challenges and opportunities across Southwestern Ontario, and is a vital platform for bringing together partners, including employers, service providers, institutions, and decision makers. It is an event where ideas are exchanged, best practices are shared, and solutions are crafted to address the pressing issues facing our workforce, talent pipelines, and local labour markets. A full schedule of events can be found here.
