Workforce Readiness: Positioning for 2016
Five local workforce readiness professionals, each with a different professional perspective, will present in this panel discussion. As a setting for what employers need to know to locate and upskill the best talent for your organization, our panel will share labor force information and success stories from their respective agencies, including OED Workforce Analytics, the ORST Preferred Worker Program, OED Veteran Outreach, the Rogue Workforce Partnership, and a private employer. The panel members will also focus on the unique skillsets, economic, and cultural challenges that face job seekers and employers alike. Attendees will come away with insights and tools for how to look at their current and future talent needs, and how to adapt their current employment practices to those needs to ensure a stable and competent talent pool to meet the strategic needs of business. You'll walk away with valuable information on what our community partners offer local businesses in the area for human resources needs.
