Consistent with AILG’s commitment to providing proactive, ongoing, topical Affirmative Action and EEO education, the organization has conducted high quality workshops and conferences open to Human Resource professional and interested individuals in the community. These sessions are cost attractive, particularly to smaller companies, informative and enabling. Our co-sponsorship with the Regional and District Offices of the OFCCP has afforded the opportunity to expand our offering throughout the Region to contractors who otherwise might not receive adequate service. In addition to workshops and conferences, during AILG membership meetings, the major portion of the agendas is devoted to programmatic offerings rather than operational or organizational matters.
