Nebraska Department of Labor reposted this
Executive Director of two Aksarben Foundation initiatives including the Nebraska Tech Collaborative and internNE, Powered by Aksarben
There are countless opportunities to support Nebraska’s talent development and retention goals. When we collaborate in meaningful ways, we can drive high-impact outcomes that benefit everyone. I had the opportunity to catch up with Merrick Brtek, Director of Young Professionals & Talent Development Programs at the Greater Omaha Chamber, and Kaylie Hogan-Schnittker, Director of Talent Strategy at the Lincoln Partnership for Economic Development (LPED), representatives from two of our strategic partners for internNE, Powered by Aksarben, a collaboration between the Nebraska Department of Economic Development and our team at the Aksarben Foundation. We visited about the great work they’re leading in their respective communities to connect with and engage young professionals in meaningful ways to support Nebraska’s talent retention efforts. I also visited with Elliott Cain, the Registered Apprenticeships Programs lead for the Nebraska Department of Labor about opportunities for employers to connect with training providers throughout Nebraska to offer placement and career advancement opportunities to new and existing staff in a variety of high wage, high skill, and high demand fields including those supported by the Nebraska Tech Collaborative..
