November 27: OEN Networking Luncheon with EHRC’s Michelle Branigan

Michelle Branigan

 

Nov 11, 2018

Branigan, the CEO of Electricity Human Resources Canada, has an intimate knowledge of the market and the industry. Her ambitions are fuelled by Canada’s aging electricity infrastructure, a maturing workforce, and a growing skilled labour shortage. Originally from Ireland, Branigan holds a Masters degree in Training and Performance Management from the University of Leicester, UK, and is a certified Project Management Professional. Responsible for all EHRC operations and strategic planning, she is ready to meet the challenges of the industry — mainly labour.

The world is almost too small to contain all the projects of Michelle Branigan. EHRC, the leading source of HR information for Canada’s electricity Industry, recently released the findings from its Bridging the Gap project, a national public/private initiative that aims to increase the representation of women as skilled workers in the electricity and renewable energy sector.
