Forum 2012: Dialogue for Workforce Excellence

March 10-13, 2012

Forum 2012, the annual conference for the National Assocation of Workforce Boards, will feature workshops that address critical issues facing our nation and our workforce development system. We invite proposals from Workforce Investment Boards, workforce practitioners and one-stop staff, youth councils, policy makers, research and advocacy organizations, industry trade associations, and employer groups, as well as our education and economic development partners and other interested parties.  We are specifically seeking sessions that enhance the capacity of Workforce Investment Boards and their staff to think and act more strategically, engage more effectively with key players in their communities, provide needed leadership around workforce issues in their region, and generally bolster our impact on the economy and jobs.  We are also interested in sessions that illustrate ways to garner more political support for the workforce system, including ways to step up our advocacy efforts at the federal, state, and local levels.
