• Determine which programs, practices and policies are innovative, effective and promising; and then
• Build a database of all the programs, practices and policies that meet these criteria.

We are asking members of the WLKC Transitions and Access Working Groups to:

• Review the attached School-To-Work measures template;
• Fill in as much detail as you know about the program, practice or policy you want to tell us about. We do not expect that you can provide all information requested on the template, but give us enough detail so that we can find the information to build a more detailed view.
• Use a new template for each program, practice and policy to which you want us to know about;
• Include contact information of those running the program or who know or have created the policy;
• Ensure that your name appears in the space provided at the top of each template that you fill out so that we can refer back to you if needed.
• Send each template to Donnalee Bell at d.bell@ccdf.ca by the return date.

Return Date

All surveys need to be returned to Donnalee Bell on May 25, 2007. To encourage Working Group Members to complete their surveys early, CCDF will host a draw for those Working Group members who send in a completed survey by May 18, 2007. One participant from those who hand in their surveys by this date will receive a $ 50.00 gift certificate to CCDF’s Career Clearinghouse which can be put towards any publication in its catalogue (see www.ccdf.ca).

Your participation will help the WLKC to create an extensive inventory of measures to improve school-to-work transitions and is greatly appreciated.
