Two New Professionals groups toured Rogers Arena simultaneously, one group focused on the suites while the other had an operational tour. Afterwards, the event opened up to the rest of the membership for dinner, drinks and a Canucks game (we won!).

BOMA thanks the Canucks organization for providing a large suite in The Sports Bar free of charge.

CleanBC is a government strategy that sets a pathway to a cleaner, better future. That future includes new job and training opportunities for you, your family and your community. As the clean economy grows, training needs to keep up and jobs need to be accessible in all corners of the province. What's your vision for the future workforce? How do you envision being ready for the jobs of the future? Provide your feedback by November 29. 

This message is from the Governance, Engagement, and Corporate Services Branch of the Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills and Training.
