Time: 12 pm - 3 pm
Location: Northcentral Technical College: Community Collaboration Center Room E102
Join Centergy and New North for a hands-on, in-person SkillBridge Training Workshop designed for employers, HR professionals, and recruiters. This interactive session will walk participants through the practical steps of engaging with the SkillBridge program—from establishing partnerships to building effective onboarding strategies. Attendees will leave with tools, best practices, and actionable next steps to successfully connect transitioning service members with career opportunities in Central Wisconsin.
Veterans bring leadership, discipline, teamwork, and advanced technical skills to the civilian workforce. Their impact extends well beyond the job site—veterans and their families contribute millions of dollars annually to the Central Wisconsin economy through wages, entrepreneurship, homeownership, and local spending. Research shows that each veteran who settles in the region generates an estimated $60,000–$80,000 in annual economic activity, multiplying the benefits for businesses and communities alike. Attracting and retaining them strengthens our economy, expands our skilled labor force, and enriches our communities for generations.
This event is part of Central Command, Centergy’s veteran attraction initiative designed to make Central Wisconsin a destination of choice for service members and their families. Central Command encompasses targeted marketing campaigns, direct talent recruitment, business resources, and other efforts to connect veterans with rewarding careers and vibrant communities across our five-county region.

- Employers interested in hiring veterans and service members
- HR professionals and recruiters
- Veteran-serving organizations
- Community and business leaders
