"Live from the CWT" Returns (with IMPORTANT DEADLINES!)

I'm sure that some of you were wondering where has Cathy gone?  She starts a blog and then nothing happens for a week.  Well, there is a reason for that.  Last week I attended the CAEL Conference (Council on Adult Experiential Learning).  It was facinating.  The week focused on many aspects of Prior Learning Assessments (PLA) and other areas of interest for Adult Learners.  Seeing that this is an important aspect of the work that we at the Center for Workforce Transition are involved with, I found the workshops and the material to be invaluable.  Over the next few weeks I will be including some great research and information specific to our Adult Learners.  So, keep an eye on the "Live from the CWT" blog!

Since I've been gone, today's Blog is going to focus on Job Blasts.  So, here you go (remember to click on the Michigan Talent Bank Job Posting number and you will be redirected to the posting):
