NEWBURGH – Developing a skilled workforce to meet the needs of the economy of today and tomorrow is a primary focus of the State Department of Labor, Commissioner Roberta Reardon said Friday.

Reardon said career opportunities in the Hudson Valley continue to grow in tourism, artificial intelligence and aviation, among other sectors.
The annual conference was coordinated by the county economic development team headed by County Director Steven Gross.
