Topics will focus on practical, proven advice for workers over 50 looking to resume an established career or try something brand new, a release said.
"We’ll discuss how resumes and interviewing techniques have changed recently, mistakes that can trip up older workers and how recent global events have actually made mature workers highly valuable," the release said.

During the workshop, participants will learn:
