South Central Workforce Development Board Board Meeting
The board discussed several items, including updates on the NDWG employment recovery grant and the Kentucky opioid abatement grants. An RFP for an AI center readiness workshop was presented, which aims to support the workforce development board in meeting grant goals. Additionally, the board approved moving the upcoming October meeting date to accommodate school schedules and voted to add a new member to the executive committee. A detailed proposal for a state-wide reskill grant project was reviewed, focusing on providing short-duration, AI-focused training for dislocated workers in key industry sectors, contingent upon project approval and funding.
