Connecting employers to new graduates.

Engaging Employers

Engaging employers will be key to our success. The Business Education Network:

  • Connects businesses and local chambers of commerce with students, education systems and workforce training programs so workforce needs are clearly and regularly articulated. As a result, these programs are more closely aligned with the changing needs of the economy.
  • Assist employers in accessing and navigating internship, mentorship and on-the-job training programs to meet their distinctive needs.
