Eastern Iowa Employer Listening Session

July 15, 2026 | 10:00AM - 3:00PM

You are invited to join an Eastern Iowa Employer Listening Session designed to bring together local employers, Iowa Workforce Development (IWD), workforce partners, and economic development organizations to discuss the workforce challenges and opportunities facing our communities.

Your feedback will inform workforce development strategies, employer services, and future state and local investments that support a strong and competitive regional workforce. This session will provide employers a direct voice in identifying

  • hiring barriers,
  • skill gaps,
  • training priorities,
  • opportunities to strengthen our regional talent pipeline,
  • other factors impacting business growth.

For your convenience, we are hosting two regional sessions. Please attend the one that best works for you. Your insights are essential as we work together to address workforce needs and support business growth in Eastern Iowa.
