Thanks for sharing, Susan.  It seems to me that we should be trying to
be more aware with what is going on with Workforce Boards with an eye to
increasing our opportunities for collaboration and cooperation with
their efforts.  Of course, it should be happening the other way around
too, with workforce boards looking to us for our expertise and
collaboration.  I'd be really interested in any success stories from
discussion list members about their collaborations with workforce
boards.  Anyone?

I wanted to pass this along, in case list members haven't seen it. 

 

The National Association of Workforce Boards (NAWB) has posted several
items about career development and workforce education:

 

-         Call for Papers for Careers Conference 2009

-         U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) report Workforce
Development:  Community Colleges and One-Stop Centers Collaborate to
Meet 21st Century Workforce Needs

-         Summer Institute on Education & Work (July 28 & 29 at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison Pyle Center)
