Commerce Chamber Theatre, Hong Kong
In a progressively borderless global economy and with the skills required for success in the workforce changing at a faster speed, it is imperative for companies not only to recruit and retain talent but to provide their employees with substantive, ongoing training and professional development. These changes are also taking place within the context of a rapidly changing higher education landscape, and it is important for education institutions and companies to work together to develop a skilled, dynamic and globally aware workforce.
Jonah Kokodyniak, IIE Deputy Vice President of Strategic Development will lead this seminar at the Greater Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce. He will discuss:
- corporate investments in education and training
- what companies are doing to remain competitive in areas such as science and engineering, health care, finance, and management, among others
- how companies are using training to promote entrepreneurship and global understanding in employees
- building core competencies for talent to succeed in key emerging markets and developing countries
