PARTNERSHIPSBoard of DirectorsThe Rotary Career Symposium was developed by many community organizations that came together to form the Board of Directors. Each member believes that employability skills are nurtured and developed at home, at school, at work and in the community. The Symposium is run under the supervision of a Board of Directors comprised of representatives from six event stakeholders, who are also partners in the event:
Rotary PartnershipPartnership between the Rotary Clubs of Winnipeg and the Symposium began in 1997 and will continue as long as the Symposium is in existence. The dedication to community involvement and commitment to volunteerism that is demonstrated by Rotary members is a large part of what makes this event a reality. The 2007 Rotary Career Symposium will mark the tenth year that the Rotary Clubs of Winnipeg have sponsored the event. Aboriginal PartnershipThe Rotary Career Symposium Board has partnered with the Aboriginal community for the last several years to make career-related and employment information available to Manitoba’s Aboriginal youth. Statistics Canada projects that Manitoba’s Aboriginal youth demographic is the youngest and fastest growing segment of Manitoba’s population. A large section of the exhibitor area will be designated, “The Red Road to Aboriginal Exhibits”. Community PartnershipsFor the last few years, complimentary passes have been provided to Income Assistant recipients, Employment Centres, The Salvation Army and other organizations that assist people on a limited income. Approximately 1000 people took the opportunity to visit the 2005 Symposium. As well, interested parents are welcomed to accompany their registered child, at no extra cost, either evening of the Symposium. Development of Long-Term Relationships Between Business and EducationThe Rotary Career Symposium will continue to play an integral role in bringing together business and education leaders to introduce them to the future generation.
