How Oregon Works: Educating the Workforce of the Future

Join Stoel Rives attorney Penny Serrurier for How Oregon Works: Educating the Workforce of the Future, presented by the Portland Business Journal. Serrurier will be a participant on the Education Panel. The keynote speaker will be Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler.

The second event of PBJ’s How Oregon Works series will examine how Oregon’s workforce will evolve over the next decades and how prepared, or unprepared, the state it is to meet the challenges that will arise.

Topics to be covered include:

• What will work in Oregon look like in ten or twenty years?
• How will the next-generation workforce be educated to match the skills that industry demands to stay competitive?
• How can workforce training keep pace with the dramatic shifts in job skills?
• What role do educators and employers play in closing the equity gap in the face of rapidly increasing demand for ever higher technical and problem-solving skill sets?

Stoel Rives is a proud sponsor of the series.
