Labour Market Information Research Agenda (2009)

This project ran from April 2008 – September 2009. Building on the need for consistent, regularly collected pan-Canadian data on the ECEC workforce as identified in the Working for Change project (2004), this project brought together a panel of experts, including economists, to:

  • Identify ways to improve the quality and availability of data on Canada’s ECEC workforce.
  • Make recommendations for consistent definitions and data collection methods; and
  • Enable decision makers and the sector to accurately define, understand and address ECEC labour market issues.

This project resulted in two key reports:

  1. Portrait of Canada’s ECEC Workforce
  2. Gathering Labour Market Information on Canada’s ECEC Workforce: Data Collection Methods and Classification Systems

 

Downloading, copying, and distributing CCHRSC resources

Despite the dissolution of the CCHRSC it is hoped that the CCHRSC`s research and tools will continue to be widely used to advance human resources issues in the sector. In turn, all organizations and individuals conducting research and/or offering ECE training, professional development, and other workforce development initiatives are authorized to download, copy, and distribute CCHRSC documents as needed, provided no fees are charged to end users and provided appropriate acknowledgements are made. Organizations and individuals are not authorized to download, copy, and distribute CCHRSC materials for profit. Any person or organization requiring clarification or consent to the use of such material should contact the CCHRSC Trust 

Timeframe: 
April 2008 to September 2009
