DESCRIPTION:The National Association of Workforce Boards (NAWB) is hosting the 2026 Workforce Impact Summit starting Monday\, September 28th through Wednesday\, September 30th\, at the Washington Hilton Hotel. \nJoin workforce leaders from across the country for three fast‑moving days focused on what matters right now in Washington — and what’s coming next.

You’ll hear directly from senior agency leaders\, policy experts\, and national organizations on the issues driving the federal workforce agenda. NAWB will cut through the noise\, break down what’s happening in real time\, and identify where the field must push\, align\, and lead. Hands‑on advocacy sessions will sharpen your message and strengthen your strategy so you can walk into Capitol Hill meetings ready to make clear\, compelling asks. \nClick here to learn more and register.

DESCRIPTION:The National Association of Workforce Boards (NAWB) is hosting How do They do it?

Scott also shares why Aspyr stepped into the role of backbone organization\, providing the structure\, relationships\, and long-term commitment needed to make collaboration work at scale. \nListeners will gain practical insights into what it takes to move from a fragmented service delivery model to a more connected\, coordinated\, and effective workforce system that better serves both job seekers and employers. \nClick here to learn more and register.
