Do You Have Questions About Changing Careers, Re-Entering the Workforce, or Skill-Building?
Posted on 02/07/25
by Laura McDonough
Join us by phone or on Facebook on Tuesday, February 11 at 3:00 pm for a conversation about mature workers and how they can use local resources to learn new skills, re-enter the workforce, or find jobs consistent with their interests and abilities. We’ll discuss career tips, job-search tools, and professional resources that every experienced worker can use to sharpen their skills or get hired. AARP knows that people are living and working longer, and experienced workers bring expertise, maturity, and perspective. Experienced workers should have a level playing field in their ability to compete for, obtain, and retain jobs, so we have invited Associates for Training and Development, or A4TD, to join us on our call.
Call 833-380-0683 on November 7 at 12:00 pm or tune in via our Facebook page by clicking here.
To help experienced workers and job seekers get to where they want to be, AARP offers effective resources and innovative tools, spotlights employers that value experienced workers and confronts age discrimination in the workplace.
Whether you’re kicking off a job search or looking to advance your career, sometimes a fresh perspective is all you need to break through, reenergize yourself, and learn how to apply your skills in ways you’ve never considered.
At AARP Work & Jobs, you’ll find innovative tools and tips for experienced workers. It’s a whole new way to jump-start your job search or to help accelerate your career. Visit us at www.aarp.org/work.
