Federal Reserve Bank Webinar Highlights Workforce Needs for Reshoring
The free webinar features speakers from workforce organizations, the Federal Reserve and educational speakers.
On Thursday, February 12, the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland is hosting a free webinar focused on workforce needs for reshoring of manufacturing jobs to the U.S. as a result of recent legislation.
Policymakers have focused on trying to rebuild America’s manufacturing base through initiatives like the CHIPS and Science Act and new tariff policies. But a crucial question remains: Who will fill these jobs if manufacturing returns to the United States? This Fed Talk will dive into research from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland that addresses this issue.
Panelists will also explore which regions of the country have existing manufacturing clusters, where manufacturing employment has grown recently, and which areas have the strongest potential for workforce expansion. The discussion could help employers, workforce development professionals, and educators prepare for potential reshoring of manufacturing jobs by creating pathways to help people start manufacturing careers. A Q&A will follow. Register here.
