The LMI Institute has launched a new Voices of LMI initiative to showcase and promote the great work being done with workforce data around the country. Institute staff are currently conducting interviews with various LMI leaders and researchers to produce brief (2-3-minute) video stories of what different members and partner organizations do and how the work is being used to make a difference. Watch our first interview with Dan Robinson, LMI Director in Alaska.
“I believe as strongly as I believe almost anything in the value of objective data for assisting policymakers in making good decisions. We just need that now more than ever.” – Dan Robinson, Alaska LMI Director

LMI Institute Records Many Accomplishments Despite Pandemic

The LMI Institute held its Annual Membership Meeting and State of the Association on Wednesday, February 24, 2021. The webinar included presentations by members of the LMI Institute Board and staff on Institute accomplishments, new products & services, and upcoming events. All of us will remember 2020 for COVID-19 and its global impact. It made us remote workers for much of the year and many of us are still working from home. It forced us to change our approach to work…from going to the office and having in-person conferences & meetings…to a life on-line and learning virtually. The LMI Institute was challenged, as were all of us, to adapt to the pandemic’s disruption. Thanks to the continued support and active involvement of LMI Institute members, we were able to make important progress in 2020 and look forward to an even more successful 2021.
