CORE Conversations
This year, CSW is celebrating its 35th year anniversary. In celebration of this milestone, CSW is hosting several events and activities, including a webinar series, CORE Conversations, with peers, experts, and funders around the country who support the mission of creating more equitable outcomes for learners and workers. CORE stands for Competencies, Outcomes, Resilience, and Equity, four principles central to CSW’s work.

“Policy & Possibility” will bring policymakers and systems leaders together to explore the policies, partnerships, and public investments shaping how communities prepare workers and employers for what comes next. Panelists will discuss emerging workforce policy trends and priorities, the evolving role of AI and automation in workforce development, and opportunities for public and private partners to work together to strengthen economic mobility.
Panelists will explore how leaders can advance equity, strengthen accountability, and build workforce systems that are responsive, adaptable, and center workers and learners.
The Practitioner Reality: Burnout, Innovation & Workforce Transformation

“The Practitioner Reality” will center the voices of workforce practitioners and explore how organizations are adapting to funding constraints, supporting staff sustainability, and using human-centered approaches to strengthen outcomes. The conversation will also highlight emerging practices for serving young adults, advancing economic mobility, and creating the organizational capacity practitioners need to adapt, innovate, and continue delivering meaningful results in a changing workforce landscape.
The Human & AI Workforce: Navigating What’s Next
Wednesday, February 25, 2027 | 3:00PM ET
“The Human & AI Workforce” will explore which jobs and skills are being affected by AI, what workers need to understand to remain prepared for an evolving labor market, and how workforce organizations can use AI to expand capacity, reduce administrative burden, and strengthen talent pipelines.
Throughout the discussion, panelists will consider how workforce systems can embrace the potential of AI while protecting equity, access, and human dignity.
How-To with CSW Webinars
We are passionate about turning high-level research and recommendations into practical, actionable strategies that can be implemented with success long-term. The How-To with CSW webinar series takes popular research and recommendations and turns them into interactive, practical webinar discussions that leave participants with clear-cut steps for implementation.
From Stress to Strategy: Building Your Personal Menu for Resilience
Wednesday, December 2 & 9, 2026 | 3:00PM ET
Most people are familiar with common wellness strategies, such as getting quality sleep, eating right, exercising, and connecting with friends and loved ones. The challenge often lies in committing to and implementing a personalized strategy to reduce stress and build resilience.
In this interactive two-part workshop, participants will learn about their own stressors and how stress shows up in their bodies, thoughts, emotions and behaviors. They will learn short- and long-term strategies for managing stress and building resilience.
Using CSW’s Regulation and Care Menus, participants will build a realistic, customized plan for adopting stress management, regulation and resilience-building practices for good mental health. Through reflection, interactive exercises and opportunities to practice, participants will identify ways to incorporate these strategies into everyday life. Please plan to attend both sessions live.
