Bluedrop Performance Learning (Bluedrop) (TSX -V: BPLI), through its
subsidiary Bluedrop Learning Networks Inc., has been awarded a $2.8
million contract to develop a managed digital service delivery channel
solution (Digital Channel). This 4.5-year project will support the
Department of Labour and Advanced Education (LAE)’s long-term vision to
help Nova Scotians connect with meaningful training and employment and
contribute to a stronger workforce.
LAE has transformed career planning and employment services in Nova
Scotia to improve the quality, accessibility, consistency and delivery
of their programs. An essential part of this transformation is helping
employers access the people and training supports they need to grow and
improve productivity in their organizations. The Digital Channel is a
key piece in this important work.
Bluedrop will provide the Digital Channel services on its Bluedrop360
SaaS platform, along with specific content and enhanced users’
functions. The Bluedrop360-hosted service will complement LAE’s current
in-person employment services by providing efficient and convenient
online access of employment services through the Digital Channel for job
seekers, students, parents and guardians, guidance counselors, teachers,
employers and Nova Scotia Works Employment Service Centre staff across
Nova Scotia.
“Providing employment services to meet the needs of the ever changing
job market, lifestyles and technology requires bold innovations. We are
proud to partner with LAE to develop the Digital Channel as it’s another
important milestone in our mission to change the way economies and
industries prepare workers to land and expand jobs for a fast changing
workforce.” Emad Rizkalla, Founder and CEO, Bluedrop
