After more than a decade strengthening community economic development in Manitoba and across Canada, Brendan Reimer will be leaving CCEDNet at the end of August.  

Brendan has played a central role in the development of CCEDNet's Manitoba presence. Since starting as a lone part-time regional coordinator for the prairies back in 2003, Brendan has successfully grown our Manitoba membership, programs and activities into an impressive range of policy development, capacity building and learning opportunities for inclusive and sustainable communities, and put together a tremendous staff team to deliver those programs. His dedication and skill have been key to CCEDNet’s success in Manitoba, which has been an inspiration and model for other regions of the country.  

Brendan is moving to a new position as Strategic Partner, Values Based Banking at Assiniboine Credit Union.  

You will be able to reach Brendan at breimer@ccednet-rcdec.ca until August 22nd and find him on LinkedIn, and Twitter after that.

CCEDNet's Board, staff and members thank Brendan for his many years of service and extend our best wishes for his new role.  An activity celebrating Brendan’s many contributions during his time at CCEDNet will be announced at a later date.

CCEDNet's search for a new Manitoba Regional Director is now underway and applications are being accepted until August 1^st.
