Niagara County Community College Workforce Development Department in conjunction with the Buffalo Niagara International Trade Gateway Organization is hosting the first in a series of presentations to increase awareness of the economic impact and employment opportunities of in-demand areas in Western New York.
The first Understanding Industries workshop, held via Zoom, will highlight Supply Chain Management/Logistics. This presentation is geared towards K-12 guidance counselors, adult education providers, and career development counselors in county government or at community-based organizations.
To register email: mis@niagaracc.suny.edu or call 716-614-6236 for more information.
“Many students and their parents do not think about logistics and supply chain as a career path – because most of us don’t spend too much time thinking about how everything we use on a daily basis gets to us. It’s an industry that requires people, energy and solutions, and always will. There will forever be logistics opportunities, and ITGO is thrilled to be working with NCCC to tell this story.” – Craig Turner, Executive Director, ITGO.
