Workforce Development Partnership Serves Both Employers and Employees

Cheryl Feldman

Cascade, 2011, vol. 3

Abstract: The health-care industry is the largest employer in Pennsylvania, and as a result, this industry has a huge impact on the state?s economy. As baby boomers age and their health-care needs increase, however, the state is facing a health-care workforce shortage that is magnified by high turnover rates, an inadequate pool of qualified employees, and a lack of qualified instructors.
