Dream with Us: An Employer Summit Hosted by Saint Paul College

Feb 26 from 8:30am to 11:30am CST

Join us for an in-person conversation on February 26 focused on shaping the workforce and education strategies our regional economy requires.  

Minnesota is facing significant disruption that impacts learners, workers, and employers. While it might seem counterintuitive to focus on the long term right now, this is precisely when we need to dream ahead—envisioning the workforce and skills our state will need to succeed. 

This gathering is designed to engage leaders in a future‑looking discussion about talent, skills, industry direction, and economic resilience.
