Workforce Development
The Talent You Need
People are our most valuable resource, and your businesses’ key to success. And the Columbus Region is populated with talent-- nearly two million potential workforce contributors at a median age of 34.7 and harboring a Midwest work ethic. We're young, educated and dedicated.
That’s why the Columbus Chamber works hard at workforce development to attract and retain the talent you need. We help connect young talent to businesses and each other (columbusinternships.com), influence policies and programs to make Columbus attractive to young professionals (Create Columbus Commission), monitor and advise businesses on workforce trends, and provide tools and resources to help you recruit your top talent (liveworkplaycolumbus.com).
