    The Statewide Workforce Development Partnership Symposium is an annual training and staff development event for individuals involved in the Workforce Investment System in South Carolina. Attendees are comprised of policy makers (State Workforce Investment Board, Local Workforce Investment Board members and local elected officials), local and state level Workforce Investment Act (WIA) professional staff, as well as staff from agencies and institutions that serve WIA clients.

    The opening Plenary Speaker is Dr. Margaret Peggy Torrey, Deputy Executive Director, Employment and Training, South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce.

    The symposium will give attendees a great opportunity to come together and share information and ideas that contribute to the continuous improvement of our statewide workforce development system. This year we will incorporate the Palmetto Workforce Partnership Awards (PWPA) into the symposium with the awards luncheon on Tuesday.
