Workshop: Colorado Office of Economic Development, ORec Industry Office
Move The Journey was selected to lead a workforce development workshop at COILS 2025, a statewide outdoor industry summit that brought together hundreds of leaders under the immersive “Camp COILS” theme. The session focused on integrating veterans into the talent pipeline, aligning workforce strategy with broader industry priorities around growth, resilience, and community impact.
“Dr. Swanson spoke at my office's conference on engaging veterans as an outdoor recreation workforce pipeline, and the session received high praise from our attendees as one of their favorites of the conference.”
