Hello EDANL members,

I hope this message finds you well, and that you are settling into our new normal. I have no doubt you have been working tirelessly to help your local businesses, members, or clients, and I want to take a moment to thank you for all that you do.

Without taking up too much of your time, I just wanted to give you a few updates.

Training Survey – We Need Your Help!

EDANL is working to develop a training and professional program that meets the needs of Newfoundland and Labrador’s economic development practitioners. Your input is invaluable and I’m kindly asking you to spare 10 minutes or so to voice your opinion on what’s important and how the training can best be delivered.

We aspire to create something that will help you on the front lines of our economy be the best that you can be in the challenging times we have before us. Thank you for helping us plan for our future.
