Northern Community Engagement
Online
Northern Community Engagement
March 27, 2025 - 10am - 11:30am
1.5 business credits
Northern Canadian businesses face a wide range of both opportunities and issues that are different than those in the south. Things such as cost/profit, transportation, goods and services, staffing, customer satisfaction and marketing are common to all, but uniquely different when northern communities engage with their communities. Together we will explore the realities of engaging community and how it impacts on operating a business in the north. *This session is interactive and will build on the experience in the group as well as the trainer’s knowledge and expertise. Your questions will be solicited before the training and will be used as a basis for the 1.5 hours.
