Program Details:

The Jobs Revolution and You
"We need to prepare for an American job market in which there are too many openings and not enough skilled workers to fill them… America has four, maybe six years in which to radically revamp its fundamental assumptions about workforce development and then to act." With that clarion call, workforce expert Steve Gunderson takes aim at what he calls "the jobs revolution" -- the employment, educational and economic challenges that America, Wisconsin and the Madison area must address, to stay competitive in the global marketplace. A veteran of 16 years in the U.S. Congress representing western Wisconsin, Gunderson is co-author of The Jobs Revolution: Changing How America Works, and senior consultant with The Greystone Group, Inc., in Washington, D.C.
Terry Ludeman will co-present and bring a local focus to this workshop, sharing his expertise and knowledge about the Wisconsin, Dane County, and Madison labor market.

Wisconsin's Approaching Workforce Changes
The presentation given by Terry Ludeman will examine recent developments in Wisconsin's labor markets and will discuss pending developments and trends, both short-term and long-term. The discussion will include a view of Wisconsin's very diverse industry makeup and the importance of that diversity.

Changes in the demand and supply of labor will be discussed with emphasis on demographic changes and economic changes, past, present and future. The demand for workers and structural changes in industry makeup will be examined. The supply of labor will also be examined, with particular emphasis on pending developments, including an aging baby boom generation, the brain drain, and a sagging birth rate.
