− | This presentation on the Official Languages (Communications with and Service to the Public) Regulations and the Official Languages Regulations Re-Application Exercise provides an overview of the Regulations, the upcoming Exercise, and institutions’ obligations with respect to the language designation of federal offices serving the public.
| + | A thriving Official Languages Program is essential to implementing the Official Languages Act. One of the low-cost ways we can actively engage our English- and French-speaking colleagues in our efforts to promote both official languages is through language mentoring. But how can we do this effectively? In this workshop, I'll share with you the steps I took to launch a Language Mentorship Program successfully that supports my work as a Person Responsible for Official Languages in my institution. |
