SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn with Dashboard Marketing
DESCRIPTION:About this event\nWhy the %$#& do I need to worry about marketing? \nIf you aren’t thinking about or planning to add marketing to your overarching strategy\, your business will fail. If you’re executing marketing tactics without a strategy\, your business will stall and stagnate. If you aren’t tracking and reacting to your marketing efforts\, you’re wasting money. This workshop will be a no-nonsense discussion around marketing\, and offer attendees a guideline to develop an effective\, impactful\, and results driven marketing strategy that can evolve with the growth of any business. We will dive into how important marketing is to the success of all areas of your organization; how it is ingrained in both acquisition and retention approaches; and how to recognize and react to both success and/or failure. We will explore 3 key components of any successful marketing strategy – brand\, customer and category. Each extremely important\, and something every organization needs to continually focus on. We will also offer insight\, advice and a framework to help build\, expand or rework anyone’s marketing strategy. Companies or community groups – be it startups\, early stage to well-established – will benefit from this fresh\, frank and unique perspective. \nIn this 1 hour presentation\, join Sean from Dashboard Marketing\, for a dynamic information session on how to market your startup. \nQuestions are welcomed and lunch is provided! \n

SUMMARY:Learning On Demand: Developing a Micro-credentials Framework
DESCRIPTION:Are you leveraging micro-credentials when assessing job candidates or developing existing talent? Interested in frameworks that increase trust in micro-credential courses? \nICTC invites you to participate in an in-person roundtable discussion on May 26th in Halifax! \n\n\n\n\nEvent Details:\nLifelong learning is increasingly viewed as a “must” vs. a “nice-to-have” in today’s digital economy\, and micro-credentials are one way for learners to beef up their skills and competencies. However\, the sheer volume of options and different standards associated with the micro-credential ecosystem makes it challenging for learners to confidently select training pathways that will give them the skills employers seek. \nTo address this challenge\, ICTC is leading research that is part of a multi-sector initiative to define\, develop\, and validate a micro-credential framework. On May 26th\, ICTC is bringing together a group of Halifax’s digital economy leaders to share their perspectives on micro-credentials\, including how they can be designed and deployed to address real-life labour market needs. \n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n\n\n9:30 AM – 10:00 AM \nRegistration and refreshments \n\n\n\n\n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM \nSmall group discussion: labour market needs and micro-credential value-add \n\n\n\n\n11:00 AM – 11:15 AM \nRefreshment break \n\n\n\n\n11:15 AM – 12:15 PM \nSmall group discussion: designing and deploying micro-credentials \n\n\n\n\n12:15 PM – 1:00 PM \nEvent wrap-up and networking \n\n\n\n\nWe know your time is limited\, so you are welcome to attend the entire event\, or just pop in for the sessions of greatest interest/that best suit your schedule. Alternatively\, if you would like to refer someone else from your organization to attend in your place\, please feel free to do so. \nIf you (or a colleague) will be joining us\, register by May 19th! \n🍽️ Lunch and refreshments are on us! If you’ll be attending\, please let us know of any dietary restrictions that we should be aware of. \n——————————– \nWe respectfully acknowledge that Halifax is located on Mi’kmaw territory\, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people.
