The Assemblymen-Gary Bikman, MLA

Rory J. Koopmans, B. Admin., #6, 14504-108 Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta T5N 1G8

January XIXth, MMXV

Hon. Gordon Dirks, B. Ed., M. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Calgary-Elbow

Dear Gordon:

Many employers are having a struggle finding, let alone retaining young people to start a job & stick with it as a start on a career path & Gary Bikman, MLA explains this frustration.

"Some young people are not prepared to work at the entry level. XXX (Thirty) to XL (40) percent of people who apply for a job don't show up for an interview, & others don't show up after being hired."

Alta. Legislative Assembly Eight,

Rory
