Join us for the February convening of the Business and Education Network (BEN) and a practical conversation about creating talent pipelines with education through accessible work-based learning opportunities. Please feel free to bring a guest who may also be interested in this event! 

This event will have both in-person and virtual attendance options.

Meeting highlights:
  • Practical, low-barrier Talent Pipeline models for employers and schools
  • Employer and school district perspectives
  • Implementation considerations
  • Resources and partnership opportunities
  • Find Your Future and Math for Life logistics update
  • Questions and discussion
Presenters:
Micah Pong, Workforce Development Manager of the Hired Workforce Solutions team. Attendees will explore how employers and schools can offer meaningful workplace experiences without creating an overwhelming administrative or time commitment.

BEN Community Connections & Updates
There will also be an opportunity to briefly introduce yourself and share a little about your organization. Attendees are welcome to provide updates such as upcoming events, helpful resources, organizational news, collaboration opportunities, or requests for support that may benefit the broader BEN network and community.

~~~

The Business & Education Network connects leaders in business with education to better prepare students and create pathways to regional workforce opportunities. This team of people provides support and insight on industry needs of education, and support for the Business2Youth Connect initiatives involving education programs like Math for Life and Find Your Future.

At the Business and Education Network, we also routinely host “Employer Spotlights”. We will continue to invite local educators and businesses to join us and talk about the benefits of the industries that drive our region. We focus on the Career Pathways that the companies or industries offer, and what types of training are required. 

Join our meetings in person or virtually (when available): The Business and Education Network meets on the 2nd Friday of each month from 7:30 AM - 9:00 AM.
