Developing Our Workforce

Workforce isn’t just a buzz word–it’s the number one concern that we hear from businesses as part of our existing business support program. The problem stems from the fact that growing economies like ours are literally going to run out of people to hire. As the baby boomer generation leaves the workforce, there aren’t going to be enough people to fill their positions because the working population is shrinking. As unemployment continues to fall, individuals with highly specialized skills will be in high demand.  That’s why we are bringing together stakeholders from business and education community to address this issue. Below are just a handful of resources for you to learn more about what we’re doing in our newest strategic area of focus.

Chamber Member Workshops

The Chamber hosts educational and or subject specific workshops and seminars designed to impart skills that help our members adapt to the changing business environment. We strive to educate our members and help them to sharpen their skill sets. Past workshops have included subjects/topics such as Human Resource Services, Social Media for Business, Accessing Capital to Grow your Business, How to Prioritize and Goal Set in Order to Become Successful, Getting your Business Certified to do business with the State of California, and California Competes Tax Credit Workshops are some just to name a few.

The Pittsburg Chamber is constantly looking for feedback with regard to topics considered most resourceful and pertinent to our members. Are you interested in learning more about a specific business-related topic? If so, please notify us so that we can potentially make it happen!
