ICCDPP 2015 International Symposium on Career Development and Public Policy
JUNE 2015 – CANADA
This event brings together world leaders who represent ministries of Education, Labor, and Youth, academic institutions and community-based organizations. The 2015 theme, “Building the Talent Pipeline and Providing Youth with Hope for the Future”, focuses on the challenges facing governments, employers, and communities to ensure young people have economically viable futures.
By participating in the symposium, world leaders have the opportunity to engage in powerful, detailed discussions with career guidance policy-analysts to create new policies that will have a major impact on issues such as youth unemployment and the disconnect between education and employment.
The 2015 International Symposium has two specific goals:
– To engage emerging nations in deeper discussions regarding the role of career guidance in the education and employment sectors and its impact on economic development;
– To facilitate conversations, awareness, and support for youth workforce development initiatives.
The 2015 International Symposium is hosted by Kuder Inc. in partnership with ICCDPP and will be held June 14-17, 2015 in Des Moines, Iowa, USA.
