A GROWING SKILLS GAPIS HAMPERING OUR PROGRESS
The good news: Cincinnati is growing jobs but, 50% of employers struggle to fill them
30,000+ jobs open today, despite 130,000+ people looking for work
For the region
Inability to attract and retain
companies, and thus, grow our
economy
Higher poverty & unemployment
For employers
Inability to find the skilled workers they
need to compete and grow
For individuals
Inability to secure good jobs, and thus
provide financial stability for
themselves and their families
