Description

Join the Workforce Wednesday Webinar featuring presenter Eric Nordstrum.

Effective workforce development depends on intentional, data-driven decision-making that aligns investments with labor market demand, improves participant outcomes, and advances equity. This workshop will equip workforce leaders and partners with practical strategies for identifying key performance metrics, collecting and analyzing meaningful data, and using insights to improve programs continuously.

Participants will explore how to define clear, measurable outcomes (such as employment, retention, earnings, completion, and equity indicators), integrate multiple data sources (labor market information, participant demographics, and stakeholder feedback), and interpret labor market trends to align programming with high-growth industries. The workshop also emphasizes program evaluation, benchmarking, and the use of technology and analytics tools to translate data into actionable insights.

You'll get a clear framework for using data to guide decisions, strengthen accountability, improve outcomes for job seekers and employers, and keep workforce programs responsive to changing community and industry needs.
