As California’s unemployment rate tops the nation, it’s critical we empower students with future-ready skills to succeed in an evolving labor market.
Specifically, California’s public sector is experiencing labor shortages in high-demand occupations. To address this challenge, on May 30, Calbright College, in collaboration with Lightcast, will publish “The Road to Optimizing California’s Public Sector Labor Market,” an in-depth examination of California’s current hiring landscape, including data-driven recommendations for creating a resilient, future-ready workforce.
Join us for a discussion with the following experts about this report and how equitable, skills-based hiring will create economic mobility across California:
- Ajita Menon, President & CEO, Calbright College
- Adele Burnes, Deputy Chief, Division of Apprenticeship Standards
- Abby Snay, Deputy Secretary, Workforce Strategy, California Labor and Workforce Development Agency
- Arnie Sowell Jr., Executive Director, NextGen Policy
Guests are welcome at 9:00 am. Our program will begin promptly at 9:30 am.
