Data Insights for Workforce Strategy: A Collaborative Roundtable

VIEW SLIDES HERE

CHWC, in partnership with the Civic Committee and Burning Glass Institute, will host a convening to explore actionable data insights that can shape healthcare workforce strategies in Chicago. Participants will learn about the Civic Committee’s Hire Chicago program and have the opportunity to review analyses on healthcare role demand and quality job benchmarks, identifying trends and opportunities for regional talent development. Sponsored by the Tullman Family Office, the session aims to foster collaboration and inform decision-making for initiatives that unlock equitable job growth across our industry. More specifically, the session is designed to:

  • Inform decisions about which occupations need larger pipelines, which skills should anchor updated curricula, and where employer engagement can reduce exits before shortages deepen.
  • Guide where Chicagoland should expand college programs, strengthen skills training, and align employers.
  • Aide earlier replacement planning, targeted program expansion, and employer partnerships that extend tenure and strengthen advancement pathways that keep workers in healthcare.
