ο»ΏWorksites Needed for Two Incredible Programs
Our chamber has partnered with the United Way of Mid Coast Maine on two incredible workforce programs through the Working Communities Challenge.
Connecting to Tomorrow Internship Program
Two dozen students will have the opportunity to earn either 20 or 40 hours of real world experience in a career path that interests them.
- For the business, itβs a great way to showcase the career opportunities that your industry provides and connect with a potential leader of tomorrow.
-
Students get real-world experience, development of business communications skills, and a glimpse of what your future could be. As a bonus, each participant that completes the program will receive a stipend.
We're looking for businesses interested in hosting students on their site to showcase their career path. E-mail Cory for more details or to schedule a sit-down to go over it.
Connecting to Tomorrow Inclusivity Project
Many of our businesses need help connecting with the workforce of tomorrow. The next generation of employees values inclusivity. Some employers and organizations have been early adopters of inclusive policies, helping those who may belong to different races, genders, backgrounds, socio-economic levels, or other identifiers be present and welcome in their workplace. We would love ALL employers to see how advanced Human Resource (HR) and workplace policies can help attract, retain, and engage their current staff.
The Connecting to Tomorrow Inclusivity Project is a film-based project. Student film groups will meet and connect with local employers who have established inclusive policies. They'll create a 3β5 minute video about the organization and it will be shown at a workforce celebration in May. E-mail Cory for more details or to schedule a sit-down to go over it.
