Under the direction of an Evaluation Committee composed of representatives of Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC), the Nova Scotia Department of Community Services and the Nova Scotia Department of Education and Culture, the evaluation was conducted by Power Analysis Inc. of London, Ontario. Subcontracting to Power Analysis, Dr. Craig Riddell of the University of British Columbia conducted and wrote up the econometric analysis (Chapter 9). Omnifacts Research Limited of Halifax, Nova Scotia conducted the participant and non-participant surveys. Martell Consulting Services of Tantallon, Nova Scotia conducted most of the key informant interviews, case studies and focus groups.

The evaluation team would like to thank all those who contributed to the study, especially officials in both the federal and provincial governments who gave of their time and experience to assist the evaluation team. We would also like to thank the many employment insurance clients who generously shared information about the impact of Employment Benefits and Support Measures (EBSM) on their lives.
