LMI Tuesdays

LMI Tuesday is a 30-minute discussion of Labor Market Information (LMI) and how to use it in your work. Each session is led by analysts from NC Commerce's Labor and Economic Analysis Division (LEAD) online via MS TEAMS starting at 11:30am. Attendee questions on the session or any LMI-related topics are encouraged.  No registration is required. 

It's about helping people understand labor market information and how it can be used in their work. With each session, we hope to remove the mystery around data, how it can be used and where to access it. Whether you join to listen to the presentation, or want to ask a question you are welcome.

The next LMI Tuesday session will be held on Tuesday, September 22 where LEAD staff will look at what's driving inflation and what it means for North Carolina's households and businesses.

Join via Microsoft Teams | Sessions start at 11:30 a.m.
