Call for Paper Proposals on Workforce Development

Economic Development Quarterly (EDQ) is seeking research manuscript proposals on the role of workforce development in economic development. The selected manuscripts will be considered for publication in an EDQ special issue on Workforce Development.

Workforce development is a key component to an effective regional economic development strategy and has become a major element in most local or state economic incentive packages offered to prospective employers. More importantly, it is a major gateway for an area’s residents to gain access to better paying jobs and careers.

Paper proposals must be emailed to [email protected] by October 17, 2022. The selected authors will be notified by November 18th.
