‘Talent Availability’ has been identified by our membership as the top game changer affecting our industry. EFC continues to develop programs to assist members with talent attraction, engagement and development. Our industry is gearing up for significant changes in the coming years. Of the 42,000 people that EFC member companies currently employ, over 10,000 of these employees are over the age of 55, which means there will be an influx of retirements within the next decade!
It’s important that we continue to train new staff so we can help develop the next generation of employees. It’s also imperative that we provide existing, tenured employees with professional development opportunities to help sharpen their skillsets and industry knowledge.
Developed by EFC for the North American electrical industry, our brand-new series of training modules supports your employees’ professional development and industry knowledge.
