Assessing the Impact of Career Development Resources and Professional Support across the Employability Dimensions

Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (2011-2013)

CCDF conducted a research project in partnership with the Governments of Alberta and Manitoba to assess the relative impact on clients with diverse employability needs and levels of labour market attachment of independent use of career development resource packages tailored to client need/community and the use of these packages when supported by a career development practitioner.  This project is a significant extension and expansion of the LMI Impact Study conducted by CCDF in partnership with the Government of New Brunswick and Saskatchewan.  It is expected that this project will not only contribute substantively to our field’s evidence-base but will also, we expect, result in tested and tailored resources to address client needs related to career decision-making, skills enhancement, job search, and job maintenance.
