The Governor’s Education Council, the Kansas Chamber and the Brandmeyer Center for Applied Economics at the University of Kansas School of Business have joined together in a survey-based research project to help better define the term “skills gap” as experienced in the Kansas business community. To this end, there will be a business town hall conducted in Great Bend from noon to 1:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Great Bend Chamber of Commerce Spray/Holt Family Board Room , 1125 Williams. This project brings together the Governor’s Council on Education (Dr. Randy Watson, education commissioner and Dr. Blake Flanders, president of the Board of Regents), the Kansas Chamber and the Brandmeyer Center.
