DESCRIPTION:The National Association of Workforce Development Professionals (NAWDP) is hosting an October 30 Minutes of Excellence Webinar: The Hidden Talent Strategy – Leveraging English Instruction to Build Workforce Pipelines on Wednesday\, October 22nd \, starting at 2:00 PM. \nWorkforce leaders are facing growing staffing shortages\, employer demand for skilled workers\, and an imperative to open career pathways to future-ready jobs. There’s an innovative solution that can meet the moment—and it’s hiding in plain sight. As 1 in 10 working-age adults in the U.S. have limited English skills\, English upskilling is an untapped tool for expanding access to quality jobs and addressing critical skills and staffing shortages. When integrated into career pathways and aligned with industry credentials\, digital literacy\, and employer needs\, English instruction becomes more than a language solution—it becomes a game-changer for workforce development. In this session\, we’ll explore how cross-sector partnerships—connecting employers\, workforce boards\, community college & educational partners\, and state government agencies—are using industry-aligned English learning to boost employee retention\, align with WIOA and build scalable models that strengthen regional talent pipelines. \nClick here to learn more and register.

SUMMARY:MAX Minutes with the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta
DESCRIPTION:The Metro Atlanta eXchange for Workforce Solutions (MAX) is hosting MAX Minutes with the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta on Friday\, October 24th\, at 9:00 AM\, via Zoom. \nChild care continues to garner significant attention nationally and in the southeast\, with particular concern for affordability challenges and their potential impact on labor force participation. With 53% of the labor force made up of parents and 37% having young children\, understanding the effects of child care affordability challenges is important for employers working to attract and retain talent. This is particularly true for communities that are experiencing a high business and industry growth rate with current and anticipated workforce needs. \nThe Atlanta Fed has conducted research to understand the extent to which child care affordability constraints may pose a potential barrier to work for families with young children. Brittany Birken\, director and principal adviser for Community and Economic Development\, and co-leader for Atlanta Fed’s Center for Workforce and Economic Opportunity will join MAX to provide a preview of this research. \nJoin MAX on Friday\, October 24th\, 9:00 AM\, for a timely and virtual conversation. \nClick here to learn more and register. \n

SUMMARY:National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE): Creating an Engaging Careers Site for Early Career Talent
DESCRIPTION:The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) is hosting a webinar on Creating an Engaging Careers Site for Early Career Talent on Friday\, October 24th\, from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM. \nIn today’s hyper-competitive talent landscape\, a company’s careers site is far more than a job board. It’s the digital front door to your employer brand. It’s where first impressions are formed\, where culture is communicated\, and where talent decides whether to engage or move on. A thoughtfully designed careers site is not just a recruitment tool. It is a strategic asset that can attract\, engage\, and convert top talent while reinforcing your company’s identity and values. At TD SYNNEX\, we recently undertook a global initiative to reimagine our careers site with a focus on elevating the early career experience. This presentation outlines the key strategies\, lessons learned\, and actionable takeaways from that journey. These are insights that can help any organization build a more effective and engaging careers site. \nClick here to learn more and register.
