Golden Steps Up to BC Non Profit Sector HR Initiative

3/13/2014

(Golden, BC) Non profit organization leaders and supporters from Sparwood to Golden flocked to StepUp BC's Community Engagement on March 12, 2014 at The Golden Civic Centre.

StepUp BC is focused on attracting, retaining and developing people in the non profit sector and attendees had a chance to get a sneak peak of some of the new resources available intended to strengthen human resource (HR) support in non profit organizations and the sector.

Local resident, Ryan Watmough, has been volunteering in this important work as a member of the advisory committees since 2011 through Golden Community Resources Society's Community Coordination project. The BC Non Profit Sector Labour Market Partnership project (LMPP), which started as the Government Non Profit Initiative (GNPI) and know known as StepUp BC, is the culmination of 5 years of hard work on the part of non profit leaders and $4.5M in government support. Mr. Watmough's local support and the unique issues found in small, rural BC communities, helped to bring this community engagement event to Golden.
 
The StepUp BC staff of Heather Hay, Jen Stuart & Denise McLean Ph.D., presented a sampling of the soon-to-be-available HR resources in the morning session. Staff and volunteers then had a chance to talk about the resources and opportunities over a free networking lunch.
 
The afternoon session was presented by Steve Patty Ph.D., and covered the impact of our people management practices. This practical and entertaining session, called Art & Practice of Evaluating Impact, explored program evaluation methods.

The all-day event provided a solid professional development and networking opportunity for local non profit staff and volunteers and foreshadowed many more exciting things in the works from StepUp BC, including online portal and toll-free non profit organization HR support hotline.
