Mark it on Your Calendar

Please mark this date on your calendar - April 11-13, 2005. The National Council of Visible Minority (NCVM) Symposium will be holding its National General Meeting & Symposium 2005 on those dates. The event will be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Ottawa.

Originally, NCVM had chosen April 18 -20, 2005. On learning that our Colleagues at the National Committee of Federal Public Servant with Disabilities (NCFPSD) was hosting their first conference during this same time, the NCVM therefore decided to change our dates so as not to have two major federal public service employee-driven events conflicting with each other.

Stay tuned to our NCVM website, www.ncvm.gc.ca, for additional information which will be shared there.

Sincerely,

Jacqueline Edwards
President
National Council of Visible Minorities in the Federal Public Service (NCVM)
