We had a great day on Tuesday at Goodwin University participating in an Educator Professional Development event!
It was wonderful to see educators and partners come together to share ideas, collaborate, and explore new ways to create meaningful learning opportunities for students across Connecticut.
Katherine Sutton from EB’s Workforce Development team participated as a panelist, sharing valuable insights and perspectives on workforce development and education. Kathy also had the opportunity to lead a rotating classroom session with Goodwin University educators, introducing a newly developed lesson that will become part of our outreach programming for both students and adults!
We’re grateful to Goodwin University and our valued partners, Sal Menzo and Anja Pennell, for their continued collaboration and support. Partnerships like these help us bring innovative learning experiences and meaningful opportunities to communities throughout Connecticut.
Why this matters for talent
General Dynamics Electric Boat highlighted an Educator Professional Development event held at Goodwin University, part of a broader workforce pipeline effort. Electric Boat lists 192 open roles on the board. Education partnerships of this kind are a direct talent pipeline signal for a company that has struggled publicly to staff submarine production at the pace the Navy wants, so candidates in skilled trades and marine engineering should take note.
