WHO WE ARE

The Centre for Employment Innovation (CEI) at St. Francis Xavier (StFX) University works alongside communities to strengthen the development and delivery of employment services in Nova Scotia through various activities, partnerships, projects and research.

The CEI works diligently with its partners to:

• enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion within workplaces;
• foster exemplary career development practices;
• conduct applied and practitioner-based research;
• provide distributed systems leadership;
• foster a more skilled, resilient, and productive workforce;
• encourage collaboration for a greater collective impact for all Nova Scotians.

As part of a systems-focused approach to employment services excellence, the CEI conducts many of its activities in collaboration with Nova Scotia Works and other provincial employment services providers, the Nova Scotia Career Development Association (NSCDA), and the Government of Nova Scotia’s Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration.
