GCP139 - Workforce Development & Talent Attraction w/Stacy Borgeson
In this episode of the Grow Clinton Podcast, Andy and Jenny sit down with Stacy Borgeson, Grow Clinton's Director of Workforce Development & Talent Attraction, to discuss the region's workforce challenges, in-demand skill sets, available programs, and resources for workforce and talent attraction.
Stacy highlights the newly launched Process Technology Program through Clinton Community College, Home Base Iowa, and the Clinton County Community Student Loan Assistance Program.
We also discuss the services available to our members that help identify quality job candidates through Grow Clinton's Career Awareness Program. Job seekers can upload their resumes and contact information via the Grow Clinton website at www.GrowClinton.com, and their information will be shared with dozens of regional employers.
Workforce development and talent attraction are key priorities in the Grow Clinton strategic plan. Without immediate access to a trained workforce, many regional employers will struggle to meet market demands. Therefore, Grow Clinton has built strong relationships with statewide leadership in Iowa and Illinois to develop cost-effective training opportunities that prepare individuals for careers in our area.
Grow Clinton also engages students in the K-12 educational system by organizing facility tours, inviting employers for speaking engagements, and connecting young professionals with hiring managers interested in supporting work-based learning, internships, and apprenticeships.
For more information on workforce development and talent attraction, please get in touch with Stacy Borgeson at sborgesongrowclinton.com.
