Wisconsin’s Workforce Visual Catalog Page is Live, and it is Amazing

In this video, Heather Thompson, Deputy Director of the Bureau of Workforce Information and Technical Support at the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development, presents her department’s award-winning visual catalog page. The page hosts 24 dashboards featuring BLS and LMI data, higher education data, population data, income information, and much more. In this presentation, she highlights career pathways, hot jobs, nurse survey review dashboards.

The entire project was built in-house with cross-functional teams, and won the Best State LMI Product or Collaboration for Data Collection and Dissemination Award at the 2024 C2ER Conference and LMI Forum in Norfolk, VA. You can find the visual catalog page, along with all the dashboards, here.
