The Industry Outreach Program is designed to identify petrochemical, construction and healthcare industries’ workforce development obstacles in the Coastal Bend and facilitate communication between industry and community in order to meet workforce development needs. To accomplish this goal, the program staff will:

  • Meet with representatives of the petrochemical, maintenance, construction and healthcare industries as well as various community representatives to discuss industry obstacles, community programs, and other relevant topics.
  • Survey the industries on issues relevant to employers, and survey the community on issues relevant to workforce development including the topic of a career pipeline system. (The Chamber will share results with participating companies; however, the individual companies’ privacy will be protected.)
  • Research the various elements of the workforce development problem, locally and nationally.
  • Structure development, facilitation, maintenance, and revision of the Workforce Leadership model, a workforce development communication system between industry, community, the Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce, and WorkSource of the Coastal Bend.
  • Strategically design the Industry Outreach Program based off of community and industry feedback.
  • Develop the TalentBank web site as a communication portal for the industry and the community.
  • Support community and industry partners by volunteering time and feedback.
  • Represent the Industry Outreach Program, the Chamber, and WorkSource at industry and community events.
  • Advocate for industry needs in partnership circles including school reform.
