"Investing In People" is intended to reflect Devon Canada's strong commitment to the development of people and their support for programs that create healthy and respectful workplaces. The grant encourages innovative projects and activities that help to build organizational, rather than individual capacity.
The grant may be used for organizational improvement projects for either employees and/or volunteers. Examples of the type of programs include:
• Organizational strategic planning
• Workforce planning
• Development of a benefits and compensation program
• Employee and volunteer training
• Team building and knowledge sharing activities
• Leadership development
In the case of training, applicants must demonstrate the value of the learning opportunity to the organization as a whole and not just to the individual that will participate in the training
Applications must be made online at http://investinginpeople.ca/. The deadline for applications is December 13, 2013. Grants will be awarded in January 2014.
