Hunter is the point person for Maine\u2019s Workforce Data Quality Initiative or WDQI, part of the national effort to build longitudinal workforce data systems supported by the US Department of Labor. Hunter talks us through the key steps that helped he and his colleagues build a secure warehouse (spoiler alert: it\u2019s not really about the warehouse!). We\u2019re thrilled to hear about what Maine learned through the process and where it\u2019s headed next. No doubt you will be too \u2013 Hunter\u2019s energy is plain contagious. Enjoy!
