Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, Lt. Governor Jim Tressel, and Ohio Department of Education and Workforce (DEW) Director Stephen D. Dackin recently announced Ohio’s 2025 Business-Education Leader Awards for Excellent Business Advisory Councils.

“A top-notch Business Advisory Council is a critical tool in Ohio’s Workforce Playbook,” said Lt. Governor Tressel. “By getting local business leaders talking with school leaders, we can focus on developing students in the skillsets that make their area of the state special. This will lead to special results as we continue to develop our workforce across Ohio.”

Ohio is home to 110 Business Advisory Councils. To learn more about ODEW’s Quality Practices for councils, visit Business Advisory Council webpage. 4/1/2024
