CEOs for Cities is pleased to announce a six-part webinar series entitled "Strategies for City Success," designed specifically to meet the needs of cities participating in the Talent Dividend Network and Talent Dividend Prize Competition. This event, spread over the next six months and generously supported by the Kresge Foundation, The Council on Adult and Experiential Learning, and National League of Cities, will explore strategies around data use, engaging municipal leadership, economic development and workforce, and adult learners with key stakeholders sharing tips on implementing their ideas.
The series will begin the first Friday in December and will continue on the first Friday of each month through May, 2013. Each webinar will begin at 2:30 p.m. ET.
The first webinar, Using Data to Drive Change for Postsecondary Success, Part I, launches on December 7 and is hosted by the National League of Cities.
Building upon the release of attainment and enrollment reports to Talent Dividend cities, representatives of Riverside, California and another city in the Communities Learning in Partnership (CLIP) initiative of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will discuss how they have assembled and built analytical capacity, used data points such as attainment and enrollment to establish baselines, and set citywide goals. Riverside recently joined Louisville, Kentucky among cities establishing public postsecondary success goals in the form of a "report card," available
