Technology, Training, and Skill in U.S. Manufacturing (2026/05/15)

✨ Are Companies Really Facing a Talent Shortage — or Using the Wrong Approach? ✨

Do you ever feel this way?

  👉 You’re constantly hiring, yet can’t seem to find the right people?
  👉 Technology keeps advancing, but the workforce doesn’t seem to keep up?

This talk will challenge the way you think about the so-called “skills gap.”

📌 We are pleased to invite Professor Andrew Weaver (School of Labor and Employment Relations, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign) to share his latest research:

• Does a skills shortage really exist?
• Why do companies feel a talent shortage when the market may not actually lack talent?
• In an era of rapid technological change, how should organizations rethink training and recruitment?
