The Hot Careers Lehigh Valley Dashboard is a one-of-a-kind, region-specific, interactive career exploration tool created and launched in 2023 under the Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corporation’s (LVEDC) Talent Strategies initiative. Lehigh Valley is a growing region in eastern Pennsylvania with nearly 700,000 residents and $55 billion in economic output. The dashboard provides students and job seekers of all ages with information about in-demand jobs in key sectors of the regional economy.
In this webinar, LVEDC Director of Research and Data Management, Frank Alvarado, will highlight the Hot Careers Dashboard tool and its features, as well as trace its evolution from a printed booklet to interactive dashboard. Since the dashboard’s launch it has become one of the most visited pages on the LVEDC website, with nearly 11,000 page views, and has been shared with the region’s colleges, universities, employers, as well as over 60,000 middle and high school students.
