The MU Extension Labor and Workforce Development Summit convened local and regional workforce development partners to identify workforce needs. Partners in economic development, public education, community development, technical and community colleges, city and county leaders, and labor union representatives came together to highlight employment and training programs and navigate workforce and education partnerships to explore opportunities and services available in the region. The Summit provides an opportunity for workforce development partners to engage around preparing an educated and skilled workforce and to identify business needs. These discussions center around what we hear in our communities that can be addressed through labor and workforce development partnerships.
