December 16, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

View the recording.

With the resignation rate in the U.S. at a record high in September, the Great Resignation continues to be a unique economic story.

This SABEW training session will help reporters find data and story ideas related to this topic. The moderator and panelists will also discuss possible reasons why people are quitting jobs at an unprecedented pace.

Will the Great Resignation be a thing of the past in 2022? Or will this continue to be an economic trend?
