Rhode to Prosperity - Business Survey
  • Rhode to Prosperity

    Business Survey
  • In May, Governor McKee launched the Rhode to Prosperity initiative, designed to connect Rhode Islanders to career pathways that lead to economic opportunity and wage growth.

    Employer insight is critical to that effort. To start, this first Rhode to Prosperity survey asks you to provide information about how - if at all - your company is served by the public workforce system, and what challenges you face in recruiting, developing and retaining staff. 

    The deadline to complete this survey is noon on Monday, September 2, 2024.

    You may save your progress and complete the survey later. The Jotform system will email you a link to continue your work (the sender will be Governor's Workforce Board). Please be sure to check your spam folder for the email.

    We do ask for your contact information, but the survey may be submitted anonymously if preferred.  

    For any questions related to the survey, please reach out to Jeremy Chiappetta, Senior Advisor to Governor McKee, at jeremy.chiappetta@governor.ri.gov.
