Everywhere you look there are Help Wanted signs. Filling today’s jobs is a hot topic and tomorrow’s workforce is uncertain. All of this impacts you, whether you’re a job seeker, an employer or someone trying to purchase a service or product.
Find out why this is such an important issue, why it happened, and what we can do about it. The Making Action Possible Dashboard, Arizona Daily Star, and the University of Arizona are partnering to create a thought-provoking event to explore the challenges we’re facing, the risk to all of us, and what we can do today to shape tomorrow.
Seating is limited, so reserve your place today!
Learn the facts and examine the trends about the behavior of our workforce from MAP Dashboard Director Jennifer Pullen. Other speakers include UA President Robert C. Robbins, Arizona Commerce Authority President Sandra Watson, and Tucson Medical Center CEO Mimi Coomler, along with other business, education, and workforce experts.
Cost is $10 including free parking in the Second Street Garage (1340 E 2nd Street).
