Business Workforce Survey Regional Meetings

In March 2021, the New York State Department of Labor and The Business Council of New York State partnered to conduct a comprehensive survey of New York State businesses focused on workforce development.

The goals of this survey were to:

Understand the current and anticipated future needs of the business community, specifically as they relate to hiring needs, skills gaps and training.
Better outline, based on data, where and how to position resources related to training and hiring programs and initiatives.

We received 1,950 unique businesses responses to the survey, representing 8,355 business locations that employ more than 130,000 workers.

We invite you to join us for an upcoming virtual regional stakeholder meeting.

The virtual meetings will minimally be 60 minutes, but we are scheduling them for 90 minutes as we look forward to robust stakeholder conversation and engagement.

We will start each meeting by sharing survey results, followed by a facilitated discussion of workforce development opportunities. We invite you to bring your workforce development ideas, best practices, and opportunities for growth and development.

Select a region below for registration (more dates to be announced soon).

Note: You will be asked to set up an account with The Business Council for event registration purposes. It is quick and easy and does not take any more time than filling out a standard registration form. Business Council members with an existing account will be asked to login.
