ICTC Partners with the Conference Board of Canada for Immigration RoundtableICTC partnered with the Conference Board of Canada at their Leaders’ Roundtable on Immigration held on October 21-22, 2008 in Banff, Alberta. The objective of the roundtable was to engage leaders in developing and implementing effective strategies for attracting, integrating and retaining internationally educated professionals (IEPs) in order to ensure sustainable competitiveness. Both ICTC and the Conference Board of Canada have completed research that identifies IEPs as a critical source of talent for all Canadian employers. To meet their workforce needs, employers must take full advantage of all supply channels to enhance organizational competitiveness and growth. The primary focus of the leaders’ roundtable was to increase business investment in IEPs and to foster government policies and programs that support workplace initiatives.
