For Business Partners


Attracting and retaining quality employees is the foundation of staying competitive and sustaining a successful business.

Together we can make a difference by bridging the gap between education and the jobs of the future.


Creating the next generation of our workforce

“Business leaders have told us they are looking for talent in everything from information technology to health care,” said Gov. Jay Inslee. “And that’s what this Career Connected Learning initiative is all about: connecting students to great employers and high-quality job training.”


Our Career Connected Learning initiatives combine classroom learning with practical career experiences for youth and young adults. Every student deserves meaningful work and a prosperous life, and there are many pathways open to them.
