Beginning in 2018, and every year thereafter, the full week beginning on the first Monday in May is designated as in-demand jobs week.

Every year during in-demand jobs week, the governor’s office of workforce transformation, in collaboration with the departments of job and family services, education, and higher education, shall organize activities to raise awareness among educators, students, and parents of jobs that are in demand by employers operating in this state and the requirements and benefits of those jobs. The activities shall include job fairs and company tours to connect middle and high school students with employers.
