Workforce Paradox Sessions: Taking it Local

http://www.wmc.org/events/workforce-paradox-sessions-taking-it-local/

Advancing Wisconsin Manufacturing Seminar Series

WMC is teaming up with the Wisconsin Technical College System to bring the annual Workforce Paradox Conference to communities across the state.

Wisconsin continues to battle the workforce paradox – high unemployment, yet employers desperately seeking qualified workers. The WMC Foundation, in partnership with the Wisconsin Technical College System and all 16 Technical Colleges, is proud to highlight current workplace solutions and an early preview of a new initiative to establish a 20-year strategic plan for the state called – Future Wisconsin.
