Register for Nov. 25th LeadingAge NY Webinar: Meet the WIOs
(Nov. 19, 2024) LeadingAge NY invites members from all long-term care service lines to a FREE webinar to learn more about the Career Pathways Training (CPT) Program under the State’s 1115 NY Health Equity Reform Waiver. Leaders of the three Workforce Investment Organizations (WIOs) will be presenting their plans to implement this workforce development initiative.
The WIOs – 1199SEIU Training and Employment Fund, Iroquois Healthcare Association, and Finger Lakes Performing Provider System – will receive up to $646 million over the next three years to implement the CPT Program. The program’s intent is to strengthen the health care workforce across the state by providing education, training, and job placement support to both those newly entering the workforce and those looking to advance their careers.
Leaders from each of the WIOs will share details about their planned rollout and the resources available to long-term care providers in the respective regions to support their recruitment and retention efforts. This informational session will provide ample opportunities for questions and answers (Q&A).
