The session will feature The Boot, a state-funded nonprofit with a presence at military installations across Louisiana.
The organization recruits, retains, and returns transitioning service members to Louisiana communities, connecting military talent with employers statewide.
Service members bring experience across a wide range of fields, including operations and logistics, information technology, cybersecurity, aviation, skilled trades, intelligence, and organizational leadership.
The program will explore the economic impact of military talent and opportunities for Northeast Louisiana businesses to engage with statewide initiatives and connect with professionals entering civilian careers.
The event is relevant to employers of all sizes, including small businesses seeking additional workforce resources.
Businesses not hiring immediately can also benefit by learning about the pipeline as they plan for future staffing needs.
