Public Private Partnerships

Strategic Partnerships.

A Shared Sense of Purpose.

Developing the 21st Century workforce requires alignment among industry, government, education, and community-based organizations. We work alongside these entities to form strategic partnerships that collaborate to equip individuals with the skills and knowledge they need to fill today’s jobs. TPMA assists in identifying the right partners, making strategic connections, and building initiatives that address workforce needs.

Here's how we help.

Conversation Starters

Convening disparate organizations and leaders to discuss common needs, plans, and goals

Creating Partnerships

Establishing agile and responsive partnerships to meet businesses’ hiring needs and address skill gaps.

Collaboration

Foster collaboration among economic and workforce development, education, and training partners to jointly plan the economic future of a region.

TPMA ensures that business leaders drive partnerships, retaining ownership of the vision and action plan throughout the planning and implementation process.

We speak the language of education, workforce development, economic development, and business, and establish alliances among partners who can align strategies to increase their impact on regional goals. At local and regional levels, TPMA possesses the unique ability to link networks and enhance relationships, thereby leveraging collective assets and resources for common goals.
