Older workers are praised by employers for their experience and professionalism, but suffered disproportionately high rates of unemployment in the latest recession. American Job Centers can help connect employers with the workers they seek by assessing how they serve senior customers.

Description

Join ETA, NGA, NASWA, NAWB, AARP and two local areas to discuss creative ways to connect older workers with the services, support, and training they need to attain in-demand jobs. This webinar is part of an upcoming series of discussions and consultations to update ETA’s Older Worker Protocol.
