From Partnerships to Possibilities: Celebrating Workforce Development Month

In the heart of September, we celebrate an occasion that resonates within TTEC – Workforce Development Month in the United States. This annual observance reflects US workforce development government organizations' efforts to help get their communities back to work. Their mission aligns with our TTEC initiatives to support our local workforces and be an employer of choice where people can grow their careers. Together with the workforce organizations, we share the same commitment to collaboration, shared purpose, and community engagement. As we reflect on its impact, we're reminded that our journey to empower individuals and foster positive change continues, regardless of the calendar's pages turning.
 
At TTEC, we believe in the magic of organizations uniting with a common goal: to empower our community through meaningful employment opportunities. Now, let's take a curious step forward: What is Workforce Development Month, and why should we all be excited about it?
 
Workforce Development Month gives us the chance to celebrate the workforce developers who work tirelessly to create transformative opportunities. During this time, our collective efforts shine the brightest, illuminating the path to meaningful employment. This month reminds us that we're all in this together, and we're thrilled to be part of this journey, offering opportunities and a warm welcome to new team members across the United States.
 
Creating Success Stories: TTEC and Workforce Partnership Kansas City
One shining example of these collaborations is the partnership with the Workforce Partnership Kansas City. Thanks to a heartwarming joint effort, they hosted hiring events that resulted in 27 hires. These events were a testament to the power of the community coming together to create opportunities for those who need them most.
 
Behind these successful partnerships are individuals who embody the spirit of community outreach. Stacy S., a recruiter at TTEC Kansas City, shared her experiences and insights. She remarked, “Engaging with the community has been a game-changer. Not only have I met incredible people, but I've also learned that Kansas City is one of the most caring communities around.”

This partnership represents real people assisting one another, organizations empowering individuals, and a community united as a family.
