2nd Annual Governor's Forum on Education and Workforce Training

The Virginia SHRM State Council is partnering with the Governor's office, the Virginia Secretary of Education and the Virginia Chamber of Commerce to host a forum on education and workforce training. The forum will be held at the Greater Richmond Convention Center on November 2, 2011. In order to register please visit Governor's Forum Website.

The Governor's Forum will engage business leaders and educators in a candid discussion on building a world class workforce that prepares our citizens for the best jobs of the future and ensures Virginia will succeed at the highest levels of global economic competition.
