If you are engaged in (or interested in) applied research or are working with local and/or regional organizations in guiding their economic development efforts, this is the workshop for you. A team from the Purdue Center for Regional Development (PCRD) has worked hand-in-hand with the U.S. Economic Development Administration to develop/update the economic clusters for all areas of the United States. However, PCRD has added two new critical data products – skills & knowledge clusters – data resources that can better position communities/regions to be participants in the 21st century economy.
