PA Workforce Coalition - Talent Acquisition Survey

Understanding Your Workforce Needs to Implement Solutions for Talent Acquisition

The Pennsylvania Workforce Coalition is a partnership initiated by PA APSE with State Agencies and statewide membership organizations to increase employment and advancement of people with disabilities. While we work on a larger event for Spring 2022, we wanted to start connecting people sooner.

Is your business in need of talent?
Is your business in search of talent solutions?
Is your business interested in learning strategies?

If you answered YES to any of those three questions, please continue on with this survey.

We are hosting virtual workshops and opportunities this October to help connect YOU with talent. Please submit your initial responses by October 15th to ensure you are included.

Please allow 10 minutes to complete this survey. You will need a valid email address. If any part of this form is inaccessible for you, please contact the PA Workforce Coalition at PaWorkforceCoalition@gmail.com.
