What Do You Do When Good IT Jobs In Maine Are Going Unfilled? COLLABORATE!
On March 28, 2012, ICL will host a panel discussion on the role collaborative leadership is playing as Maine fights to provide employment opportunities to its citizens.
Recognizing the increasing need for information technology skills and the shortage of qualified applicants, Mike Dubyak (President and CEO, Wright Express), Stephen Bowen (Commissioner, Maine Department of Education) Rich Pattenaude (Chancellor, University of Maine System), and Ron Bancroft (Founder, Bancroft & Co.) teamed up to create and support a plan that will deliver highly-trained IT graduates to Maine’s workforce ― from Maine’s university system. These innovative leaders will address the challenges and opportunities that face Maine employers and outline the roadmap engineered to address these challenges.
The event takes place on Wednesday, March 28th and runs from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. It will be held at the Clarion Hotel in Portland. Tickets are $20 for ICL/HLD alumni and $25 for the general public.
