NWA plays a key leadership role in workforce development. Insightful workforce practitioners recognize the value of shaping the future, instead of waiting for it to direct them. NWA gives you the opportunity to be a part of a powerful network that is constantly growing. Our input and first-hand knowledge is actively sought by policy makers at the national level, whose resources can help us all achieve success. We promote innovation and excellence in locally based workforce programs through our annual conference, special legislative briefings, training sessions, publications and peer-to-peer exchanges.
