How We Can Work With Economic Development Corporations and Workforce Development Initiatives

Helping Employers and Economic Development Groups Meet Talent Acquisition Goals

Economic development corporations (EDCs) function by attracting industries and employers to states and counties. In response, workforce development (WD) initiatives and organizations are tasked with developing the workforce these relocating or expanding employers need. At DeVryWorks, we can help employers and their ED organization partners meet the need for skilled talent. Moving at the speed of industry, we can tap into the robust pipeline of DeVry University students and alumni to help employers meet their talent acquisition goals. This diverse and career-ready population is equipped with the skills today’s modern manufacturers and tech companies demand.

We also make sure economic development and workforce development groups are communicating in a way that’s conducive to better coordination and precisely-targeted upskilling solutions, and avoiding costly skills mismatches.
