The document outlines six strategy areas and proposed actions to address each. For the first strategy of expanding access to information, plans are to consolidate an existing career resource and create franchises and partnerships. For the second area of facilitating educational access, established models will be strengthened, a bursary group formed, and new scalable models explored. The third area of connecting unemployed individuals to work involves replicating mediation models, providing tailored support to small training organizations, and tailored entrepreneurship assistance.
