Workforce Connections Website
Are you interested in attracting current and future workforce to your business? Do you have a creative opportunity to share? Do you want some help in creating your own incentivized training program? This is a great place to start! We have compiled a list of resources that can get you started on your own path to investing in your business and connecting to workforce.
What is the Workforce Connections Website?
The site is designed to connect young adults to unique opportunities that incorporate both education and/or training and compensation. These opportunities might be an apprenticeship, an internship, an educational stipend, tuition reimbursement, or something else. The important difference between this website and other job sites is that the opportunity must provide some sort of compensation and an educational component. We like the phrase “earn while you learn” to sum up the concept.
Where Can I Find The Website?
Visit www.workforceconnections.mt.gov to check out the website design and some of the opportunities other businesses are offering. The site is open to the public and anyone can search opportunities!
Who Is Using The Website?
One of the best things about this site is that it is statewide! Montana Chambers have worked with OPI and local schools to help implement this website as part of career readiness in schools. And while the website was created to connect Montana businesses and students, anyone looking for a pathway to a career can visit to search for available opportunities.
Does My Opportunity Qualify?
There is a wide range of opportunity types that qualify for this website. The key pieces are compensation and education. Check out the definitions of the opportunity types on the website by hovering on the information bubble on the website search page or reference the descriptions below.
How Do I Add My Opportunity To The Website?
To be added as a business on the website, you must be invited to join. Contact DLIWorkforceConnections@mt.gov to get your invitation to join the site.
