Developing a Talent Pipeline for the Healthcare Industry
In-Person Event
Sep 17 - 18, 2018
Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA
OVERVIEW
Developing a Talent Pipeline for the Healthcare Industry is organized by North East Regional Employment and Training Association (NERETA) and will be held from Sep 17 - 18, 2018 at Hilton Scranton & Conference Center, Scranton, Pennsylvania, United States of America.
Description:
This year, for the first time in history, healthcare has surpassed manufacturing and retail to become the largest employer in the country. And, healthcare occupations are expected to increase by 18% in the next ten years with one-third of all new jobs in the country expected to be in healthcare. But, the supply of healthcare workers is not keeping pace with the demand and the shortfall could have dramatic impacts on the quality of healthcare provided in the US. By 2024, there is expected to be a shortage of one million healthcare workers nationally.
There are solutions to avert this talent shortage crisis if leaders in local regions work together.
This summit has three goals:
• To help regions from across the country develop talent pipelines for the growing healthcare industry.
• To help local administrators establish a healthcare sector/cluster strategy for their region.
• To help healthcare professionals establish a working relationship with workforce development, economic development and higher education professionals to collaboratively promote healthy communities.
Why should you come?:
The economy is transforming, but many of our systems are antiquated and/or stagnant. This event will address the major aspects of the burgeoning economy!
• Transforming our economy with a more technically proficient workforce and
• Transforming our workforce and local communities to be creative, independent innovators who drive economic growth through progressive and collaborative strategies!
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
