Name: Workforce Development Briefing by Madison College, UW-Madison, and UW Colleges & UW-Extension and Competitive Wisconsin
Date: July 19, 2012
Time: 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM CDT
Event Description:

You are invited to learn about current work force issues and participate in policy discussions that will affect work force development and training here and all around the state put on by Madison College, UW–Madison, and UW Colleges & UW–Extension, in collaboration with Competitive Wisconsin, Inc. (CWI). Nearly a dozen similar briefing sessions are being held all around the state.

 

During this 90-minute session, you’ll learn about work force development and training initiatives from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development, Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. and Competitive Wisconsin Inc.; hear an overview of local work force issues from Thrive and the South-Central Workforce Development Board; and have the opportunity to participate in a discussion about work force challenges and opportunities. Your input may be used by CWI as part of its upcoming comprehensive BE BOLD 2 Workforce Development Study being conducted by ManpowerGroup and McKinsey Global. A similar study and series of discussions two years ago resulted in BE BOLD: The Wisconsin Prosperity Strategy and was instrumental in the creation of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation.
