5月16日,皇冠app学院的制造业女性峰会聚焦机遇和认知

The Business, Management, and Advanced 制造业 Department at Goodwin College has announced its inaugural 制造业女性峰会 for Wednesday, May 16, 2018. 该活动将在学院的商业和制造中心举行,东哈特福德的一条彭特路,从5:30到晚上8点。 免费入场,活动对公众开放。

The Summit will bring together individuals interested in encouraging women to consider 职业选择 in business and manufacturing. Business leaders, educators, and students will participate in discussions focused on 破除神话 about today’s manufacturing environments; 工作机会的种类和数量; 补偿问题; 改变妇女的选择,特别是那些平衡家庭责任和继续教育的妇女。 A photographic exhibit, courtesy of 移民美国的就业机会 and sponsored by Andrews Benefits of Farmington, will feature women in all areas of modern manufacturing.

皇冠app学院(Goodwin College)劳动力发展部主任梅勒妮•霍本(Melanie Hoben)表示:“企业和教育机构之间的合作关系有助于在招聘之前确定合适的成功员工,并帮助他们获得入门级职位。” “我们意识到,凭借我们经验丰富的教师和行业合作伙伴,我们有一个绝佳的机会来举办一次峰会,鼓励这些利益相关者之间的讨论,以及寻求进入劳动力市场的女性。”

Goodwin currently offers business and 制造项目 that range from certificates to associate and bachelor’s degrees. 尽管康涅狄格州约有1.3万个制造业职位空缺,但女性很少认为自己在追求这些可行的职业。

“女性在制造业中的代表性明显不足,我们致力于改变这种状况,”霍本补充道。 “像这次峰会这样的机会将有助于利用尚未开发的人才库,让女性了解高薪、有回报的工作机会,并使她们能够与该地区一些有远见的商业领袖建立联系。”
