Description

*In-Person Event*

Greater Rochester Chamber’s talent team invites employers to a special event focused on building tomorrow’s workforce today.

Get clear on where your business fits in the youth talent pipeline and how early engagement drives retention and stronger teams. Hear directly from programs preparing your future hires and get the inside track on partnering with them. You’ll leave with an Employer Playbook built for action: who to call, how to plug in, and what steps deliver real ROI for your business and our region.

Agenda:

Actionable Employer Strategies – Practical ways to engage youth that match your capacity and hiring goals—from low-lift volunteering to building your own pipeline, with replicable examples.

ACT Work Ready Communities – How this national framework helps measure and grow local workforce readiness.

Networking – Meet youth-serving programs aligned to your industry and needs; start relationships that move the needle now and long term.

Optional Tour – See Golisano Institute’s hands-on, career-driven model in action.

This event is free to anyone in the Greater Rochester region. Deadline to register is Thursday, October 16th.
