- Trends, Opportunities and Priorities Reports
Produced annually, the Trends Opportunities and Priorities (TOP) report summarizes the results of local labour market planning consultation. These consultations are facilitated by WWTAB, held throughout the year as well as information gathered through regular community outreach eg. regularly scheduled meetings with various community organizations, employer surveys, one-on-one key informant interviews, etc. The TOP highlights those labour market development trends and issues which have been identified by the community as being of the highest priority for action. It acts as a vehicle to provide opportunities for community partnership development and also avoid duplication of effort by reporting on actions already being taken.
