Event Overview:

Fragomen, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, and the International Organisation of Employers invite you to join us for a webinar discussion of a steadily developing concept to fill international labour market gaps through Skills Mobility Partnerships (SMPs). The SMP concept holds great promise but has reached a juncture at which meaningful employer engagement is necessary to drive it toward fruition. This webinar offers interested employers the opportunity to engage directly with those steering the SMP initiative and learn how the employer community can bring its ideas and needs into the forefront.

Government and industry leaders will provide an in-depth look at:

• An overview of Skills Mobility Partnerships and legal pathways
• The importance of employer involvement in building these pathways
• How companies are currently utilizing these pathways
• What next steps we can take as employers to aid in moving governments forward
