Oklahoma Works System Partners from across the state will come together for this three-day conference to learn, share best practices, and network. Attendees will have access to instructional presentations and useful materials to help them continue to build the future of Oklahoma.
Conference attendees will learn how Oklahoma system partners are promoting a state-wide vision to connect education and training systems with the needs of Oklahoma’s economy; aligning and using state data to help determine skills gaps, workforce issues and trends; supporting and expanding partnerships to better connect education and training providers to the needs of business; and modifying use of resources and incentives to support integrated vision.
