Mississippi Department of Employment Security established its Speaker’s Bureau to share information about the agency and the services provided through the Workforce Investment Network (WIN) in Mississippi. Our core programs of Unemployment Insurance and Employment Services can change or expand when funds become available. The MDES Speaker’s Bureau is made up of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) on all the various services and programs provided by the agency or through the WIN Job Centers or our many partners.
Target groups for our speakers include but are not limited to, business organizations, employer organizations, civic, faith-based, and community groups, and schools. In addition to our basic services and programs, some of our speakers are well-versed in subjects including: professionalism, résumé updating, interviewing techniques, networking and other life skills.
To request a speaker for your meeting, print out the Speaker’s Request Form, fill-out the form, and fax it to the Communications Department at 601-321-6271. Our Director of Communications will contact you for clarification about your request, if necessary, and assign a speaker. Please allow at least three weeks between your request and the date of the speech.
Our speakers provide these services free of charge. Any out-of-state requests or requests requiring overnight travel may necessitate travel and expenses compensation from the requesting party. Terms can be arranged with the MDES PR Manager.
