Connecting People to Jobs: Supporting Workforce Development Success

1:00 PM – 1:30 PM EST

Workforce organizations need a variety of tools to meet the needs of the populations they serve.  Veterans, in particular, are in the spotlight as many struggle to translate their valuable military skills to private sector jobs.  It is also a challenge for workforce development, education, and economic development to thoroughly understand local labor markets at both micro and macro levels so that programs are aligned to business needs.

Monster’s Veterans Talent Index, Military.com Jobs site, and its Real Time Labor Intelligence empower WIBs to communicate better with business and industry by identifying trends and local information that help fill jobs and get people back to work.   Join NAWB CEO Ron Painter as he talks with Susan Fallon, VP Global Strategy & Business Development, Monster Government Solutions, and Bruce Stephen, Director of Real Time Labor Information Research for Monster Worldwide, in a discussion of how WIBs can better engage employers, veterans and other jobseekers they serve by arming themselves with readily available tools and information.
