If you're searching for a new career in a rapidly changing economy, where do you turn for information on the latest employment trends, or to predict where jobs will be five years from now?
The University of Alberta's new Alberta Centre for Labour Market Research (ACLMR) may be just what you're looking for. Officially launching this month, it is designed as the first stop for Canadian labour market expertise and high-quality, real-time information and research, says the centre's new director, economist Joseph Marchand.
Based in the U of A's College of Social Sciences and Humanities, the centre includes 25 contributing researchers from five Alberta universities, including the universities of Calgary, Lethbridge and Athabasca, and Royal Roads University.
