Over the next decade nearly 3.5 million manufacturing jobs will need to be filled. The skills gap is expected to result in 2 million of those jobs going unfilled. How can we prepare our region's workforce for this demand? Is more science, technology, engineering and math training needed throughout all levels of education? Join other regional manufacturers on at our 2nd Quarter General Membership Meeting on Thursday, May 21st at 5:00pm as we hear from the Susan E. Pareigis, President and CEO of The Council of 100, a dynamic leader on issues affecting businesses and how we can close the workforce gap.

Debbie McMillan, Program Director at CareerSource Florida will also inform expanding companies on how to access $1500-$1800 per new hire with the Quick Response Training Grant program.
