City Partners with Clackamas Community College to Host Workforce Roundtable

The City of Wilsonville and Clackamas Community College are joining forces to host a breakfast session on Wednesday, May 10, 7:30-9 a.m., with local employers to address a critical topic for many businesses—workforce. From recruiting to leadership coaching to customized employee training, this roundtable event is aimed at connecting businesses with the workforce resources they need to grow and thrive. The event is being held at Clackamas Community College’s Wilsonville campus, 29353 SW Town Center Loop East, in Room W108B.

 

“When meeting with local employers and learning about their key challenges to success, workforce issues are consistently on the top of the list. Many Wilsonville employers don’t realize the robust workforce resources that exist in their backyard, offered by Clackamas Community College and others. We are very excited to help remove barriers to growth for local employers through some of these resources,” said Jordan Vance, Economic Development Manager for the City of Wilsonville.

 

With 50 years of quality job training experience, Clackamas Community College works with employers to find creative solutions to their business needs and some coursework even qualifies for college credit. From training and professional development opportunities for staff; to finding a skilled workforce that fits business demand; or helping create strategies for growth; Clackamas Community College is a trusted partner that can help find a custom solution for local employers.
