CAN’s New Workforce Working Group
We are excited to announce the formation of our Workforce Working Group (WWG). The WWG takes into account the workforce aspects that present across CAN’s work and puts a specific lens and focus on the development of the people and places that impact the region’s capacity for workforce expansion. As this group evolves announcements will be made for how to get involved. We invite you to join our mailing list to stay up to date on our latest stories and updates.
