Once per year, the Employer Engagement team at TMU hosts LMI sessions with select employer partners with the intention of getting a “pulse” on the labour market.

What we look to accomplish with these sessions is gain an understanding of industry trends, desirable skills, and initiatives that can be passed along to our student support staff, students and faculty.  These sessions are typically 2 hours in duration, and the output of the discussion is a report that is distributed to internal stakeholders and participants.

Should you be interested in future participation, please send an email to Mark Whitten (mark.whitten@torontomu.ca) stating your interest!
