Managing Director, Corina Sibley, presented a lunch and learn session on Jun 17th at the Halton Hills Chamber of Commerce on Important HR Considerations for Operating in Ontario; the presentation was very well received by participants in a follow up survey. Suggestions for future sessions included topics on onboarding, recruiting and retention. We have many professional development seminars, lunch and learns and workshops available on a variety of topics.
