The FAST Workforce Development Roundtable: One Week Away
The FAST Workforce Development Roundtable is just one week away, taking place on September 26th at 12:30 – 2pm EST! If your company is feeling the impact of the technician shortage in the security industry, now is the time to act. This roundtable is a crucial opportunity to come together as an industry and implement a real solution that will address the growing demand for skilled technicians.
The FAST Workforce Development Roundtable brings together employers, training providers, and industry leaders to collaborate on a scalable solution to meet this demand for technicians. The goal is simple: to host as many 6-week training courses as possible across the country, specifically in the regions where employers need technicians the most. These courses are designed to equip participants with the skills and certifications (CAT Level 1, OSHA 10, etc.) required to succeed in the security industry, offering companies a valuable resource to fill critical roles.
While FAST is working closely with our training partners TEKsystems and Per Scholas to develop effective programs, the success of these initiatives hinges on the involvement of employers in the industry. We need to know where the demand for technicians is highest and what specific skills are required in your region. By bringing your company’s needs to the table, you help ensure that the training programs we offer are tailored to meet the real-world demands of the security industry.
The more companies we have at the table, the more 6-week training programs we can roll out, creating a sustainable talent pipeline that will benefit the entire industry. Whether your company is struggling to fill technician roles now or you anticipate a need in the near future, this roundtable is the place to make your voice heard.
