Unlock the potential of Generation Z in shaping the future of apprenticeships with Women in Manufacturing's webinar, "Engaging GenZ: The Power of Youth in Program Development and Mentorship".  This dynamic session explores why involving youth—particularly GenZ, with their digital fluency, innovative mindset, and passion for impact—is crucial to designing apprenticeships that resonate and succeed. We’ll dive into the unique strengths GenZ brings to the table, from their tech-savvy problem-solving to their demand for purpose-driven initiatives, and why their voices are essential in crafting apprenticeships that work. Expect expert insights on how mentorship can bridge generational gaps, with practical strategies for empowering youth as co-creators—not just participants—in program development. 

Hear from leading experts with Manhattan Strategy Group’s Registered Apprenticeship Industry Intermediary—the Supply Chain Automation Workforce Hub—including Dorinda Byers, Cori Di Biase, and Dr. Kimberly Harris, as they explore how to effectively involve and inspire the next generation through mentorship and meaningful program design.
