We are collecting data that reflects community voices to develop this initiative. This survey is aimed at practitioners to share their insights on working with students and supporting their employment journey. Please take 5-10 minutes to complete the survey below.

Survey answers will be anonymous, and participation is entirely voluntary. We will include quotes in the publicly available report and project communications (e.g. social media posts), but no identifying information will be included. Any questions can be directed to youthstratlead@uvic.ca
