What is IPP? 🔍 An IPP (Individual Program Plan) is a planning document that addresses your child’s specific education needs. This ensures that appropriate planning and set strategies are in place to support your child’s growth and learning. 📁 IPP is guided by Alberta’s provincial policies and regulations to ensure that the plans are tailored to meet the unique needs of your child. 🤝 It is a collaboration between educators, parents, admins and other related professionals. 🧡 At Entrust, we empower and support parents with the knowledge and skills to advocate for their children effectively.

Happy Thanksgiving from our team at Entrust! May your day be filled with warmth, happiness, and cherished moments with your loved ones.

Last Friday, we held our first in-person People & Culture team lunch and learn. It was great meeting some of my team members face-to-face for the first time! Our Talent Acquisition, Onboarding, and Learning & Development specialists delivered an excellent and clear breakdown of our current processes, challenges, and key areas to optimize for elevating every people and culture role. When I joined Entrust, I wasn’t sure how to drive results from 13-member team, working mostly remote with some in different cities and offshore, supporting 1,000 Entrusters. I quickly learned the importance of defining the People & Culture mandate, setting clear priorities, deliverables, and timelines and being intentional with in-person collaboration. Hosting monthly P&C meetups fosters trust-based relationships by allowing my team to showcase their expertise and align their aspirations with ongoing projects. #PeopleAndCulture #HybridWork #IntentionalLeadership #Collaboration #BuildingTrust #DrivingResults
