Please join the Progressive Policy Institute, in collaboration with the Associated General Contractors of America and Procore, for the release of a new paper, “Building a Stronger Workforce: Federal Spending on Postsecondary Education and Training.” The report illuminates current federal spending on postsecondary workforce education and training and compares these funding levels to investments in traditional academic programs.

The event will bring together congressional staff and industry representatives to discuss the implications of the report for construction and other industries.

Attendees will also have a chance to hear from members of Congress and employers working within current funding restraints to ensure workers and job seekers have increased economic opportunity, and employers have the talent they need to remain competitive. We hope to see you there!

Confirmed speakers include:

  • Rep. Lloyd Smucker (R-Pa.)
  • Taylor Maag, Director of Workforce Development Policy, PPI
  • Tamar Jacoby, Project Director, PPI
  • Nathan Barry, Ph.D., Vice President for Strategic Operations and Initiatives, Metropolitan Community College
  • Harry L. Davis, III, President, Sussex Development Corporation
