Wilson College will host the next event in its Health Sciences and Business Programs Strategic Seminar Series on Thursday, March 12, 2026, with a session titled “Hiring Practices and Workforce Planning.” The seminar will explore how modern organizations recruit, hire, develop, and retain employees, including how artificial intelligence is influencing those processes.
The event will begin with networking from 5:00 to 5:30 p.m., followed by a panel discussion from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the Harry R. Brooks Complex for Science, Mathematics, and Technology Auditorium.
