Celebrating Workforce Development Month in Minnesota
September 2, 2025
September is Workforce Development Month in Minnesota and around the country. It's a time to salute the workforce development professionals dedicated to linking people with employment, connecting jobseekers and employers with career and business growth opportunities and helping drive economic development in communities across the state. I think this is a month to celebrate!
Of course, as DEED's Deputy Commissioner for Workforce Development, I'm partial to celebrating workforce development whenever possible. I'd like to share some reasons why we all should take time to acknowledge these essential efforts.
