WPTI exists to serve and support the workforce development field, helping to create pathways, access, and opportunities for job seekers striving for economic stability, and for employers seeking skilled, ready talent.

We are here 20 years later because of the many partners, stakeholders, and thousands of workforce practitioners and leaders who have trusted us to support them and shape this field.

In our eyes, this 20th Birthday belongs to Workforce Development. This celebration is about honoring the people, innovations, and impact that make this work possible—the practitioners, leaders, and organizations that have changed lives and built stronger communities.

Join us for an event that will be uplifting, fun and recognizes the dedication of those who have committed their careers to advancing economic opportunity and mobility.
