In order to gain a clear understanding of the workforce issues facing our region, we have partnered with Competitive Wisconsin Inc., (CWI) to hold a briefing session for area business, labor, civic and academic leaders to learn about a major research study being conducted this summer and discuss local workforce development responses to the issues we face.

Economic and workforce development experts will also be available to discuss regional initiatives, opportunities and challenges.  Invited stakeholders include major regional employers; regional economic development directors and board members; local work force investment board members; labor representatives; local chambers of commerce directors and board members; faculty with expertise in workforce development; CWI members; and BE BOLD 2 sponsors
