LOCS Regional Conference 2020
70 participants attended the 3rd annual Regional LSP and Conference, including partners from LBS, ES, OW, ODSP, MLTSD from 4 counties participated in this one day event. This year, we learned about in-demand trades, collaborative workforce training programs, client and learner success stories, fostering supportive workplaces, and strategies for engaging employers and improving job retention. And, of course, plenty of time was allocated for networking with professionals from across the spectrum of partners.
Thanks to all participants and a big shout out to our presenters and our conference collaborator and sponsor, Workforce Development Board!
