INITIATIVES:
- ASPIRE Capital Region
The Greater Tallahassee Chamber is proud to be a founding member of ASPIRE, a collective impact that leverages the assets of partner organizations and community stakeholders to bridge the gaps in the effort to scale education and workforce opportunities for students in the community. - Community Talent Plan
The One Vision Community Talent Plan, guided by the Talent Development Council, included stakeholder input, qualitative research, the development of strategic recommendations, the creation of an implementation plan and the establishment of performance metrics to measure implementation success. - TalentHub
TalentHub is an interactive career development platform that links recruitment, skill-building and career navigation into one comprehensive system. This data-driven platform connects job seekers with employers and integrates demands for new skilling, new employer-advised programs, training tools and other opportunities. - Talent Pipeline Management
The Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce facilitates the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s Talent Pipeline Management (TPM) model, an employer-led and demand-driven approach to closing the skills gap. These industry-specific groups are for businesses to create and manage talent ‘supply chains’ by projecting talent needs and aligning those with education and workforce development systems. - Tally Job Hop
The Tally Job Hop is a half-day tour for students to visit some of North Florida’s top businesses that are looking for interns and employees from our local universities. At each stop, students learn about a company’s corporate culture, what type of projects they are working on and most importantly, what types of internships and jobs are available.
