Training & Education Conference Home Page

Keep PA Working is the 2012 conference theme.  Now more than ever, the public workforce system faces challenges to come up with creative solutions to the job crisis, even while federal and state funding has declined.  The local workforce development community is responding to these challenges, leveraging scarce dollars and ingenuity to connect citizens to the right resources to prepare them for jobs in today's unstable labor market.  Pennsylvania's workforce professionals are meeting the challenges head on to Keep PA Working.
