Fostering partnerships to serve Minnesotans
- Post copy: According to recent surveys, some Minnesota employers still face challenges finding workers with the necessary skills to fill open positions, despite the loosening labor market. At the same time, many Minnesotans struggle to find family-sustaining employment, often because they lack the credentials to get hired into in-demand, career-path roles. That’s where the Minnesota Skills-Based Talent Accelerator initiative comes in. Learn about this initiative that's making a difference for Minnesota workers and employers.
- Post links to a blog post about Minnesota's Skills-Based Talent Accelerator initiative, which is a statewide initiative helping employers shift from credential-based to skills-based hiring. The initiative provides hands-on workshops for employers, workforce professionals and educators. It addresses both customers of the workforce system: helping employers redesign hiring practices and helping job seekers learn to identify and communicate skills
