It provides a snapshot of current practice in quality assurance in Canada among government funded career and employment agencies, third party providers contracted by government, and large community based service providers. It also presents an outline of quality assurance systems used in the European Union and in New Zealand. Its recommendations include national sharing of promising practices in Canada, undertaking a study of Canadian public perception and satisfaction with career services, prioritising impact evidence collection in research, promoting a holistic approach to quality assurance in Canada.iccdppadmThu, 07 Apr 2011 23:44:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:180http://www.iccdpp.org/PolicyResearch/Guidanceforunemployedadults/tabid/146/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/179/Default.aspx#Comments0http://www.iccdpp.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=146&ModuleID=458&ArticleID=179http://www.iccdpp.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=179&PortalID=1&TabID=146http://www.iccdpp.org/PolicyResearch/Guidanceforunemployedadults/tabid/146/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/179/Default.aspxThis is a power point presentation prepared by the Canadian Research Work Group to describe the back ground to the project, its preliminary results in the second phase, and next steps.

A booming economy has led to skills shortages and the need for demand driven career and employment services. The overall policy context is that from 2007 there is full devolution of labour market funding and responsibilities from federal to provincial level (including British Columbia) with a new Labour Market Development Agreement to be negotiated. Evaluations of supply driven career and employment programmes and services in 2001showed the lack of a strong connection to employers and employment. Demand driven services also have limitations especially as they have narrowly defined economic goals and a limited set of indicators for effective programme delivery. Neither do they address the issue of persistent unemployment for particular sections of the population. The authors argue the need for a comprehensive approach involving supply and demand driven approaches with a significant focus on skills development. Cost - Benefit Analysis should have appropriate and complete measures embracing measures of employment and earnings as well as social development indicators. The document provides advice on best practice in careers and employment service delivery and on labour market policy evaluation. They advocate the use of local and community based guidance provision than the use of large private non-local and international firms to deliver the service. iccdppadmTue, 18 Dec 2007 22:56:00 GMTf1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:74http://www.iccdpp.org/PolicyResearch/Guidanceforunemployedadults/tabid/146/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/73/Default.aspx#Comments0http://www.iccdpp.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=146&ModuleID=458&ArticleID=73http://www.iccdpp.org/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=73&PortalID=1&TabID=146http://www.iccdpp.org/PolicyResearch/Guidanceforunemployedadults/tabid/146/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/73/Default.aspxThis 4 page briefing document published by the British Columbia Career and Workforce Development Alliance calls on the career and employment services sector in that province to take an interest in demonstrating the impact of careers services, programmes and interventions.
