[WEBINAR] Remote Worker Training: An Economic Boost for Rural North Carolina

December 10, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (EST)

Description

Join us virtually on December 10 from 10 - 11am to discover how remote work can serve as a transformative strategy for economic development in rural communities. Dr. Kenny Sherin, Community and Economic Development Program Manager for NC State Extension, and Tom White, Director of the Economic Development Partnership for NC State University will present.

NC State Extension's new Remote Worker Training Initiative, part of the Digital Skills Education Program, equips individuals with the skills needed to thrive in the growing remote job market.

This comprehensive program will focus on:

  • Digital Literacy – Master essential tools for remote work.
  • Communication & Collaboration – Learn effective practices for virtual teamwork.
  • Remote Job Search Strategies – Access guidance and resources for career development.

By increasing digital skills and broadband utilization, the initiative supports rural economic diversification, job growth, and local business development. Remote work reduces "brain drain," retains local talent, and attracts new residents seeking modern career opportunities while enjoying a rural lifestyle.

Learn how remote work training can:

  • Strengthen rural economies without requiring relocation.
  • Maximize returns on broadband infrastructure investments.
  • Drive local business growth and economic resilience.

This session is ideal for professionals interested in workforce development, broadband expansion, and strategies to boost rural economic growth. Don't miss this opportunity to explore remote work as a key driver of community vitality.
