CEDA, SSC, and WDI would be honored to have you join us for an engaging conversation on the LYFT Career Pathways initiative.

Cheryl Gleaser, the esteemed founding facilitator of LYFT, will be leading the discussion around scaling best practices from southwest Minnesota’s regional LYFT initiative and creating a collaborative model with multiple agencies working together to achieve common goals of strengthening career and technical education opportunities. We aim to leverage Rural CTE grant funding and bring additional resources to our community to equip students with marketable skills that align with our region's labor market and empower youth to pursue further education and rewarding careers.

We truly value your insights and contributions, and we are excited to have you as part of this conversation. Your expertise as an educator, economic development agency, chamber of commerce, post-secondary and training provider, or industry expert will greatly enrich our dialogue.

Thank you in advance for your time and participation. CEDA, SSC, and WDI look forward to seeing you at the LYFT Career Pathways event!
