GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — September marks Workforce Development Month; a time to connect job seekers with employers.
An open house was held Wednesday at the Brown County Job Center with Wisconsin’s Department of Workforce Development.
Those looking for jobs were able to learn about in-demand openings, apprenticeships, training, and resume building.
Employers were able to learn more about things like competitiveness, labor laws, and posting open positions.
“There are still 2.4 open jobs for every one job seeker,” said Amy Pechacek, Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development Secretary. “So, the worker quantity challenge impacts all industries, from hospitality, to health care, to leisure, to everything.”
Similar open houses were held in other cities statewide.
