 The target was established to address need for hard to fill positions, such as auditors, but experience with recruitment over the year showed that other means of recruitment were more successful and resource commitment to attend career fairs was not justifiable.
Note 15: 
 Training sessions discontinued with relocation of human resources staff support through government-wide centralization of these services to create the BC Public Service Agency. An online orientation package is being developed to replace the former service. Orientation binders developed in-house being distributed to branches for use in new employee orientation.
