As Governor, I am passionate about creating jobs and ensuring that Oregonians have the skills to compete for every job in this state and in the global economy.

My vision is that Oregon's businesses have a competitive advantage in the global marketplace due to their highly skilled, innovative workers. That means we must invest in education and workforce training so Oregon becomes a magnet for companies that want to hire skilled workers, and workers have good jobs that fully utilize their skills and talents. Oregon needs competitive companies, productive people and innovative ideas to grow and keep stable, high-paying jobs in our state.

My workforce plan, Winning in the Global Market, will increase the number of Oregonians prepared for high-demand, high-wage jobs and make our state's economy stronger. Please join me and my workforce, labor, education and business partners in our efforts to bring greater opportunity to all Oregonians.
