Register Today! Re-skilling the Mid-Career Workforce Town Hall
Please join the
Heldrich Center and
WorkingNation on
Tuesday, August 8 for a
Town Hall on Re-skilling the Mid-Career Workforce.
The 90-minute aims to shed light on the fact that the future of work and employment is changing faster than we ever could have predicted and most American workers will need to actively re-skill themselves for the jobs of the future or risk becoming obsolete in the modern workforce.
Moderated by
PBS NewsHour anchor and correspondent Hari Sreenivasan, the event will convene an esteemed panel of experts in economic and workforce development to discuss how to address the growing skills gap in the United States, what can be done to properly train Americans for the jobs of the future, and other important topics. Confirmed panelists include:
- Carl Van Horn, director of the Heldrich Center.
- Maria Heidkamp, director of the Heldrich Center's New Start Career Network.
- Jane Oates, WorkingNation Executive Committee member and former Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Department of Labor.
- Kimberly McLain, CEO of the Newark Alliance.
- Amanda Mullan, senior vice president and chief human resources officer of New Jersey Resources Corporation.
The Town Hall will feature time for Q&A with audience members.
The town hall is scheduled to be taped for later broadcast on NJTV. We hope many NSCN members and partners will attend to help us highlight these important issues!
The event will run from
4:00 to 5:30 p.m. and will be held at the Mastrobuono Theater on Rutgers University's Douglass campus. The address is 85 George Street in New Brunswick. Free parking will be available.
