Advancing Workforce Development
We support funding for student success and programs that enhance workforce training.
Ensuring that Central Texas has the workforce it needs to support all the growth our region has coming our way is central to our mission. Throughout the year, we support funding for student success and programs that enhance workforce training, like our high school internship program with Austin ISD.

This summer, over 30 chamber businesses opened their doors and hosted 180 high school students throughout Travis County. In addition, we partnered with AISD to pilot a paid high school professional internship program providing students with soft skills training, networking opportunities, and mentorship from career professionals.
