Description

Workforce is a major issue facing our members, which includes ensuring that future workforce members are being trained to fill tomorrow’s available jobs. To help area employers address this, the Kauffman Foundation is looking to relaunch their Real World Learning initiative to better prepare our region’s students for real world employment and opportunity.



On Wednesday, February 8, from 11am to 1pm at the Abbott in downtown Kansas City, the Kauffman Foundation is hosting an event to kickstart the new Real World Learning 2.0 program and to really encourage business participation in preparing high school students for post-secondary opportunities including immediate workforce participation. Currently, Real World Learning supports over 80,000 students over 30+ school districts in our region.
