Key items on the agenda include the WWDC contracts for 2025, a discussion of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) partners’ memorandum of understanding process, and a look at additional labor market information. Attendees will also hear about several impactful initiatives or programs:

Following the meeting, WWDC is hosting an in-person WIOA Partners in Progress Summit. This collaborative event is designed to elevate Wyoming’s workforce. We’ll dive into three key discussions:

  • What is your organization currently doing to support job seekers or businesses?
  • How do you envision expanding your services for greater impact?
  • What gaps exist in connecting job seekers to businesses, and how can we work together to bridge them?
