We had great representation yesterday from healthcare and manufacturing employers across the Miss-Lou for our second employer roundtable discussion.

The discussion included our workforce development partners:

• Natchez Adams School District
• AccelerateMS
• Copiah-Lincoln Community College
• Alcorn State University
• Natchez WIN Job Center

We had wonderful speakers in Mayor Dan Gibson, Chandler Russ of Natchez Inc., Bob Buseck of Mississppi Coding Academies, Ricky Ricardo of Lobaki, and Dian Lusher, Corporate Coach. They all did an amazing job with providing open discussions about “hot topics” in workforce.

We can’t thank The Natchez Convention Center and its staff enough for their attentiveness to ensure we had a flawless event. Continued thanks to The City of Natchez, Adams County Board of Supervisors, Natchez Adams School District and Natchez Inc. for your continued support.

And a special thank you to Delta Regional Authority for your funding support at the federal level to make our workforce efforts possible.

Huge thank you to Lakitsha Rogers, Workforce Program Coordinator, for all her hard work to make this event a success! Stay tuned for the workforce training efforts we’re looking forward to offer through our Miss-Lou employers and workforce partners.
