Following closely on its release of guidance for higher education institutions, and its promise of a forthcoming technical assistance guide for contractors in this field, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) announced it will hold a town hall forum for academic institutions in Washington, D.C. on October 23, 2019.  Contractors can register for the town hall here.

This event follows town hall events focused on veterans issues, the financial and legal industries, and the tech industry, among others.  In past events, OFCCP officials have announced new areas of emphasis, so these events can be a source of insight for contractors into the agency’s views and priorities.
