Workforce professionals and lenders can improve their capacity to develop a trained workforce by working together more effectively. That’s the finding from a recent survey of Workforce Investment Boards (WIBs) and from lender roundtables conducted by the Kansas City Fed.
The findings were the subject of a recent webinar organized by the Kansas City Fed. Among other things, the webinar explored ways the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) can support workforce development and how workforce professionals can better engage lenders.
