The employer community

The Enterprise Partners

Panhandle employers who hire through ForgePath TalentFoundry and open their doors to people starting out. Together, they're building the workforce this region runs on.

What partners do

Open a door, build a pipeline

Every partner commits to at least one of these. Most start with one opening.

Hire entry-level talent

Post jobs, trainee roles and helper positions for people who are ready to learn.

Host paid internships and work experience

Give students and career changers a real start, with a supervisor who guides the work.

Train on the job

Grow skilled workers through apprenticeships and on-the-job training.

What partners get

A steady line to local talent

  • First look at screened candidates from across the SkillNetwork
  • Help finding out if training-cost support may apply to your roles
  • A seat at the table on what local training should teach
  • Recognition as an employer that invests in the Panhandle (with your OK)

Public training-cost support is never automatic. The local workforce board decides whether and how much.
