Workforce Committee
The Council shall, under the guidance of the CWI Chair, form committees or working groups on an as-needed basis to formalize a structure for Council members and stakeholders in Wisconsin's workforce and talent development system to actively participate in the maintenance, support, and refinement of the system's activities.
This committee is responsible for Focus Area 3 - Workforce in the 2026-2030 CWI Strategic Plan with the goal to sustain Wisconsin's economic resilience by maintaining the employment-to-population ratio of adults aged 25-54 of at least 80%, mitigating the projected decline in the overall ratio by reducing structural barriers to the workforce.
As part of their goal, this committee will promote innovative service delivery models and evidence-based practices that match job seekers with a quality job, incorporate stakeholder feedback into program development, and advocate for policies and supportive services that encourage people to enter and remain in the workforce.
