High School – Building the Pathway to a Good Job

April 5, 2007 – A new report from CPRN has found that governments could be doing much more to help young people get on the right path to a good job. The report, Pathways for Youth to the Labour Market: An Overview of High School Initiatives, looks at programs and policies that help or hinder young people in finding rewarding work. Four provinces were studied: British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Newfoundland/Labrador. Information from the State of Queensland, Australia is also included to allow international comparison.
