How Can Colorado Build a Stronger Talent Pipeline?

This week on Colorado Chamber Office Hours, we are breaking down a proposal aimed at streamlining Colorado’s workforce development system. 

House Bill 1317 would create a more unified approach to talent development and establish a transition plan to better align the state’s workforce programs with employer needs.

 Host Ed Sealover sits down with ​Colorado Speaker of the House Julie McCluskie, a sponsor of the bill, to discuss the goals and potential impact of the legislation. He is also joined by Shannon Nichols, SVP of Impact at Colorado Succeeds, to explore how the proposal would strengthen Colorado’s workforce and support economic growth. 

Tune in for a breakdown of what Colorado’s current system looks like, how it can be improved and what the bill could mean for the state’s future workforce.
