GREATER DES MOINES PARTNERSHIP UNVEILS GOALS FOR DSM WORKFORCE COLLABORATIVE

"The Partnership regularly connects talent acquisition teams and business leaders with work-based learning coordinators from school districts across the region," said Jenae Sikkink, Senior Vice President of Talent Development and Inclusive Strategies at The Partnership. "These connections and partnerships create unique student opportunities and open career pathways for future talent. We hear repeatedly from businesses the value they see in opening their doors to students through internships, certificates, pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programming. We look forward to continuing to lead and advance these efforts across the region."

"We are excited to ramp up our efforts dedicated to implementing innovative solutions that bridge the gap between education and business in Greater Des Moines," said Lexi Shafer, Director of Workforce at The Partnership. "We look forward to working on these three goals that are focused on strengthening our community by increasing work-based learning and skill-building opportunities.
