**From BC WiN to CAN WiN**

This expansion builds on the success of BC Partners in Workforce Innovation (BC WiN), an eight year initiative originating in British Columbia, to support inclusive hiring in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario. BC WiN is an innovative recruitment approach that helps BC employers meet workforce needs and connects people with disabilities/diverse abilities to careers with respectful, inclusive employers. Much like a recruitment agency, this is a demand-based model that starts with the employer who has a career opening and Inclusive Workforce Specialists recruit on the employer’s behalf from a unique talent pool, providing job matching services, training and ongoing support to set everyone up for success.

With this national expansion comes a name change to **Canadian Partners in Workforce Innovation** (CAN WiN). Under the general direction of the Associate Program Director, Inclusive Workforce Specialists will increase Employer Partner and Service Partner networks to help employers in five Canadian provinces (BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario) increase workforce inclusion of people with disabilities. This position also facilitates ongoing support to ensure effective onboarding and retention. Building strong, trusted relationships with employers is essential to ongoing success.
