Welcome to the professional development event of the year for economic and workforce development researchers!

This year’s theme is Creative Solutions for Transformational Change. We want to hear how local and regional researchers use data in innovative ways to create unique answers for your local economy.

Conference highlights include hearing from industry-leading keynotes, training classes,  Researchers’ Roundtables, presentation of the annual Community & Economic Research Awards and Charles Benefield Award, and opportunities to build important networks within the research community.

Sponsors and exhibitors will showcase their latest products and services. For questions or sponsorship opportunities please contact Spencer Abrams at sabrams@crec.net.
