With only one day left before ERIEC’s 3rd annual premium event, the 2013 Edmonton Global Talent Conference for Finance, IT and Engineering professionals, the air is electric here at the office. For the first time in ERIEC’s short history, the event is SOLD OUT with record-breaking registration of 185 people. Interest in this is event by Edmonton’s corporate community is a clear reflection of the tightening labour market here. And the rapid increase in the pool of internationally trained professionals who are anxious to make a contribution to the Canadian economy in Edmonton will also be turning out in large numbers!
We have been busy planning this event for nearly five months now – arranging top-notch keynote speakers like Dalibor Petrovic, Partner at Deloitte Consulting and Vik Maraj, Partner at Unstoppable Conversations, industry-specific panel discussions by Edmonton’s top business leaders and professional association representative, and thought-provoking professional development seminars delivered by Edmonton’s best on the topics of social media, networking, effective job search tips and Canadian workplace culture!
Being a not for profit organization, ERIEC relies on government funding and the generosity of corporate sponsors to make this catalytic event in Edmonton a reality! ERIEC would like to publicly thank:
