NC Employer Engagement

North Carolina’s economy runs on talent—and employers are at the center of building it.  

Businesses across North Carolina are coming together to strengthen the state’s talent pipeline—and we invite your company to be part of it.

By partnering with the Governor’s Council on Workforce and Apprenticeships (and through it, the NCWorks system), employers gain access to talent connections, workforce training resources, and support designed to help companies recruit, train, and retain the skilled employees they need to grow. Workforce partnerships help businesses secure the talent they need today while shaping the workforce of tomorrow.

The goal is bold: engage 50,000 employers across the state.

Add your voice. Share your workforce needs. Help shape the future of North Carolina’s workforce...and ensure your business stays competitive.

After completing the form at the link below, you can expect to be connected with workforce partners that will be able to support your workforce and business needs, as indicated on the form.

Join thousands of employers who are pledging to build the talent pipeline, ensuring that opportunity continues to be built here in North Carolina.
