Future Workforce Room
11:40AM to 12:30PM
With growing demand for skilled workers across construction, infrastructure, and technical fields, traditional pathways into employment are evolving. This session brings together construction employers, trade leaders, educators, and HR professionals to explore how micro-credentials, apprenticeships, and short-term technical certifications can move talent quickly into key roles. Panelists will discuss how companies can evaluate skills beyond traditional degrees, how newcomers can translate existing international experience, and how industry and education can work together to close the gap between training and employment.
