Work Force & Talent Development

The Albany Area Chamber Foundation is working to build a modern, adaptive workforce to meet the needs of today and to compete for the future.

In alignment with its strategic objectives, the Albany Area Chamber Foundation in 2023 convened business and community leaders to update the Albany-Dougherty County Works! Talent Strategy presented in 2020  in partnership with the Albany-Dougherty Economic Development Commission. The updated strategy represents a community-wide, two-year roadmap and action plan to strengthen Albany’s talent and its talent pipeline. The strategy was developed by a collaborative of employers, community partners and educational partners and was facilitated by the University of Georgia’s Carl Vinson Institute of Government. The Albany-Dougherty County Works! Talent Development Strategy 2.0 leverages Albany’s assets, spirit and community resources to enhance prosperity and maximize impact and opportunities for its citizens and its businesses.Read the 2023-2025 Albany-Dougherty County Works!
