January Focuses on Demographics and Workforce Issues
01/07/07 21:12
This month we bring in some great speakers from
Austin and our local Panhandle Worksource to give us
a look at what we can do and are doing to prepare our
workforce of the future. Also, we hear from our state
demographer, Dr. Steve Murdock, who helped us kick
off the beginning of Panhandle Twenty/20 looking at
the implications of our demographic stats. Chair
Diane Rath and Trent Morris of Panhandle Worksource
begin this month with a look at preparing our
workforce of the future, and we end with Rich
Froeschle of the TWC tellling us how the Panhandle
workforce fits (or doesn't) into the new global
economy. I encourage everyone to attend if at all
possible! Thanks!
