CPACE Employer Engagement: Advisory Board Activities

The employer engagement strategies listed below have been grouped based on your responses, budget, time lines, and overall feasibility.  We need your assistance in implementing these engagement strategies so that we have optimal success creating outlets for awareness and collecting data from employers.

First Approach:

• Please provide us with employer and association contacts so that we can gain access to employers, employees, and members.

• Help us make connections with minority groups such as The National Society of Black Engineers Detroit Alumni Extension, The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, and The Michigan Minority Business Development Council.

• Lend your name for support by granting us permission to reference your name in an invitation letter.

    Process:

        1)    Tammy Coxen, CSW, (734) 769-2900, tcoxen@skilledwork.org will contact the AB members via e-mail or phone beginning June 16 running through June 30 to obtain relevant employer, association, and/or minority group contact information such as contact's name, company name, most easy to reach phone number, and email address (may be that of an assistant).

        2)   Once you provide us with a contact, we ask that you notify your contact and let them know that a CPACE team member will be connecting with them within the next several days.

        3)   Please let us know if you would like to be a part of this initial engagement meeting/phone call.

Second Approach:

• Please share with us any existing state collaborations and upcoming state association and employer forums that you are participating in, or are aware of, which you believe will provide us with an opportunity to address the audience.

    Process:

        1)   Tammy Coxen, CSW, (734) 769-2900, tcoxen@skilledwork.org will contact the AB members via e-mail or phone beginning June 16 running through June 30 in order for AB members to provide her details of the collaboration or forum including contact name, most easy to reach phone number, and email address (may be that of an assistant). 

        2)   Once you provide us with a contact, we ask that you notify your contact and let them know that a CPACE team member will be connecting with them within the next several days.

        3)   Please let us know if you would like to be a part of this initial engagement meeting/phone call.

        4)   Please let us know if you would like to address the audience on your own.  We will provide you with PowerPoint slides, talking points, and brochures.

        5)   If you would like a CPACE team member to address the audience, or address the audience along with you, we will first determine the feasibility of connecting with the group based on budget and team capacity.
