Through Executive Order 100, the Council on Workforce Investment (CWI) was tasked with aligning Wisconsin's workforce and talent development initiatives and investments with its economic development strategies. The Council engaged their members, partners, and peers in comprehensive discussions and working sessions to elicit feedback across economic and workforce development sectors: their recommendations were compiled to form the 2018-2022 State Strategic Plan, which can be accessed here. The goal of this publication is to ensure that careers with high market value and in-demand skill sets are filled with the most qualified individuals to provide Wisconsin with a competitive advantage for attracting and retaining businesses and talent.
