Description
We invite you to join us on June 26 from 8:00–9:00 a.m. at the St. Croix Valley Business Center for a focused and forward-thinking workshop, Bridging Business and Talent: Building the Next Generation Workforce.
This interactive session is designed to help local businesses explore practical, real-world ways to connect with emerging talent. Here’s what you can expect:
- Pre-event insight: Receive a short video highlighting how students and young professionals can contribute to your business and the value of career-based learning
- Explore engagement opportunities: Learn how to get involved through job shadows, internships, apprenticeships, project-based experiences, and hiring
- Collaborative discussion: Join fellow business leaders and the Business Education Leadership Link committee to answer key questions and share perspectives
- Ongoing involvement: Get invited to a fall Workforce Summit for deeper learning and a spring hiring/career expo to showcase your business to students
Together, this year-long effort is about building connections, breaking down barriers, and ensuring we develop and retain talent right here in River Falls.
