The goal of the project outlined in this document was to improve student and client outcomes in college-based programs sponsored by Employment Ontario (EO) by promoting the collaboration of college frontline staff in Apprenticeship, Job Connect, LBS/Academic Upgrading and Employment Assistance Services. Projected results included improved referral processes, sharing of resources, greater awareness of Employment Ontario programs and services, and improved networks at individual colleges.

The author describes the colleges’ success in achieving those goals and provides a summary of recommendations for continuing progress in increasing collaboration.

Document appendices include bulletins prepared during the project, a sample college newsletter, and a draft agenda for a college event.
