摘要：	The situation of growing demand, and level or dwindling supply for civil engineering positions poses a significant challenge for Minnesota and for the country at large. To avoid turning the pending reality into a major crisis, though, Minnesota decided to take action. The Research Implementation Committee (RIC) of Minnesota's Local Road Research Board (LRRB) sponsored the Minnesota Summit on Civil Engineering Workforce Development to address civil engineering employment issues. Held Aug. 9 2000, the summit attracted 44 leaders from the private and public sector, including representatives from city and country government, the Minnesota Department of Transportation, federal government, private engineering firms, industry organizations, and educational institutions. Summit participants focused on the following tasks: Reviewing recent research on the expected demand and supply of civil engineers, surveyors, and technicians; Showcasing innovative methods of recruiting and retaining civil engineers, surveyors, and technicians by reviewing nationwide best practices; Examining the survey of cities, counties, and industry that assessed the nature of the problem in Minnesota; Developing an action plan that collaboratively leverages the resources of all the workforce development stakeholders; Defining roles and responsibilities for solving the program among all stakeholders. Divided into four smaller groups, participants completed problem and vision statements for four key areas: awareness, attraction, access; recruiting, retention redesign; and re-recruiting. The report details work completed at the summit and the actions that resulted from the summit.
