Please post your questions in the chat and we will either respond to them at the appropriate moment during the presentation or add them to the Q/Q queue at the end of the presentation. Thank you!

For our understanding, how does the work of RealTime Talent differ or add-to to the work of the state demographer's office and the MnDEED Labor Market Information office?

What types of manufacturing are most in demand and what skill/educational levels are required for these workers?

Can you share a link to the article/study that named MN as having the worst talent shortage in the nation?

When you think about the current economic situation in your community, which of the following career fields do you feel has the most challenging or pressing workforce needs to be addressed right now? (select up to two)

@Marney - thx for the question. We bring in much of the same data sets/sources and work in collaboration with both agencies to lift up the landscape on a current/real time basis. We also leverage data tools that speak to the demand side and have become well versed on the nuances regionally, especially as it pertains to candidate profiles in the local markets relative to employer demand -

Thank you for these questions! We will respond shortly.

All, please know Erin is lifting up highlights and I would suggest there is much more detail available in the reports that will be available for your further review. Consider it a teaser to peak your curiosity. It's much to digest but very informative and I'm confident worth your time to dig into the detail based upon the work you do and the ecosystem impacts you have in your role.

Hi Erin, I was wondering why some of the teacher stats stated except CTE teachers.

I was wondering the same about the exception for CTE teachers.

Thank you for this question - it means that it is referencing secondary teachers, but doesn't include special education or CTE teachers.

Please post your questions in the chat, or unmute to ask live. Thank you!

What piece of the data surprised, inspired, validated, or challenged you?

The clearly broken systems.

The software developer occupation confirms findings that I've heard.

The US Chamber paper you referenced! 44 unemployed folks for every 100 jobs in MN.

How we will be able to work together in MN to address these issues.

Most surprising for me (even though I'm a RTT employee) is the unemployment rate, most inspiring for CTE programs is that they can continue to focus on gateway occupations and make a difference for MN

I was inspired and validated by the zipcode and demographic breakdown showing that workforce equity is a statewide goal, not just a metro area concern.

@Stephen - really important point!

Thank you all for sharing!

I'd like to hear more about research and recommendations for those broken systems. I hear and see the sounds bytes or highlights from the media, but would enjoy hearing more from RealTime's SME's on it.

I would like to know how many students or people of color (African Americans)are included in this data for unemployment and what is the goal/strategy for getting more involved?

Continuing to drive home the difference between our need for replacement in roles as well as growing demand.

Is there data on citizenship status and how it effects career pathways?

And how do the higher "locked out" communities in unemployment related to our public education system?

thanks

Interesting--MN has a highly educated population compared to other states, yet our students are performing at low levels in comparison to other states (i.e., math & reading).

Good point, Karl

One thing we're hearing from MnDOT supervisors is the importance of reaching high school age talent. Of course, more generally we know that attempting to reach those who've been systematically and structurally kept out populations is key.

From your perspective, what are the most important considerations in these data for Career and Technical Education programs?

Exploring more opportunities for CTE students to earn industry recognized credentials / certificates while doing CTE education programming

Consistent communication from employers to schools about CTE opportunities. More informational fairs, summits, etc.

Building an identity at a young age in different fields in CTE i.e. IT

Regionally data driven alignment of programs to need so we can address award disparities. Especially in a time of low higher ed enrollment - maybe making hard choices on what programs are grown and which might need to be sunset.

I think this brings to light the importance of going into younger grades in elementary school for career exploration to ensure students know what jobs may be out there.

Connecting professionals with CTE students in one way or another. Career day talks, school-to-work programs, one-on-one chats, events-(like EPIC in CentralMN) pen pals, etc.

Develop Plans with targeting certain ethnic groups to include and keep from inequities. OJT paid, training and certifications…etc

Providing career paths and providing the training and education as part of the job duties.

supporting school districts to invest in human capital so that the work can be done on the front lines

Collaboration across communities, industries, state agencies and all educational orgs

Thanks so much for this vital information. Great work!

Bring some of the training programs into school with high Low economic status and high minority populations

Thank you, Erin and RTT!

Thank you all for making it a priority to join today!

Thank you!

What is one barrier that you can help remove for BIPOC students?What additional information will you seek out next?

Bring som of the training programs (OJT) in the schools with low SES and high minority populations.
