ABOUT THE MEETING

Starburst-Fall Meeting 2019 Early Bird.p

As the workforce continues to change ages and competition among similar industry sectors for technically skilled workers stiffens, employers' approach to workforce development must include new and innovative ways to attract new talent, to retain and engage with their existing workforce, and to manage collaboration and productivity in a technology-driven workplace while maintaining cyber security.  

GSSC's Fall Meeting centers around new and innovative trends in workforce development, how state and local models are transforming their workforce initiatives to meet the needs of employers, and reducing the risk of cybersecurity threats.  Featured topics include

 

  • Text-Based Interviewing:  How to Reach More Candidates and Save Time Hiring

  • Recruiting, Retaining, and Leading Gen Z

  • The Role of HR in Cybersecurity

  • Augmented Reality for Improved Performance

  • Talent Pipeline Management

  • OSHA's Safe + Sound Initiative

  • CTE Signing Days

Meeting Summary

Join us for GSSC's 2018 Fall Meeting, November 1-2, 2018, at the Hyatt French Quarter Centric in the heart of the Big Easy!
 

The workplace is changing, and competition for technically skilled craft professionals continues to stiffen as similar industry sectors compete for the same skilled workers and the current workforce ages. 

GSSC's Fall Meeting focuses on strategies and best practices models for the recruitment and retention of talent for the 21st Century workplace. Meeting topics will focus on the value of career pathways, career academies, pre-hire training, and apprenticeship as recruiting tools as well as sessions that address the recruitment and retention of underrepresented groups, including women, returning military, and underemployed. The impact of social media on the recruitment process will also be featured.
