Today, we salute Dr. Raynor's contributions to our workforce community. TN is unique in its formalized delivery of skills training through TN Colleges of Applied Technology. Even better is funding via TN Promise & TN Re-Connect making post-secondary ed free for many Tennesseans!

Today was a good day. It’s critical for organizations to take an introspective look at culture. Who are we as a workforce system? What is so essential to who we are that it’s in our system’s DNA. Our AJC team SHOWED UP and it was amazing to be together again!

The greatest challenge Tennessee employers face related to hiring is the lack of available employees with certain credentialed trade skills.
