Sector Partnerships 101

What is a Sector Partnership? A Sector Partnership brings together employers from the same industry with the education, training and other community support programs needed to implement solutions and services that ensure the target industry thrives. Ideally, Sector Partnerships take on more than workforce issues, such as infrastructure, broadband, supplier development, to name a few. 2 Growing The Talent Pipeline
