Governor's Summit on Workforce Development
The 2004 Summit
Welcome to the first Governor's Summit on Workforce Development. Your decision to be here
not only will help your business and customers - you're also investing in the future of Wyoming's
workforce and economy. We appreciate your commitment.
We encourage you to take advantage of this unique opportunity to share your business concerns
with experts gathered here for your benefit. Please be sure to connect with the Department of
Workforce Services (DWS) staff that are here to help you.
You'll also meet members of the Wyoming Workforce Development Council (WWDC) - people who volunteer
their time to bring business, labor, and the public sector together to shape strategies to best
meet workforce and employer needs. DWS supports the Council's mission to create and sustain a
higher skill, higher wage economy. The WWDC advises and makes recommendations regarding
the coordination of workforce development activities and services among state agencies. The
Council operates in conjunction with DWS and acts as Wyoming's Workforce Investment Board
under the federal Workforce Investment Act.
We're here to listen. Please give us your thoughts on how we can continue to work for you.
