“Our mission is to serve and provide leadership to our region in developing and maintaining an economic climate that creates and retains jobs and enhances the quality of life for citizens. The partnership seeks to provide a 21st century workforce through employer aligned curricula and programs that lead to a highly trained and skilled workforce. Programs are accomplished through strong partnerships with k-12 education, post- secondary education, business and industry, chambers of commerce and local city and county governments. Our vision is to be an advocate for lifelong education and a catalyst to the region in providing an excellent 21st century workforce that meets the needs or exceeds the requirements of present and future employers.”

“Highlands workforce development and education initiatives are expansive, reaching students in middle school through post secondary education and into the workforce. Processes are in place to inform highlands' communities of the work being done to support rigor and quality in career pathways for all students, create scaled pathways that culminate in credentials, encourage cross-institutional alignment between k-12 and post secondary education partners and engage area employers.”

“The paid internship program allows select high school students (seniors and some juniors)to gain hands-on experience in various career sectors, teaches then a trade or skill(s), and provides an invaluable learning experience, thereby putting students on a path to success in life after high school. The main purpose is to introduce the students to a future career aligned with their skills and interests and one that meets the future employment needs of the company.”
