Brookings: Rethinking Workforce Development (Webcast)

February 16, 2021 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

Brookings is hosting a webcast on Rethinking Workforce Development on Tuesday, February 16th, from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM.

It will take bold reforms to expand and scale effective and well-targeted workforce development programs and services; but such reforms are necessary to improve employment outcomes and increase credential attainment among workers with the greatest risk of being displaced.
