InterLink released its Annual Regional Labor Market Survey. This report polls North Texas Commission members and other regional business leaders to determine labor needs of our region’s employers.
In 1987, a group of North Central Texas business and education visionaries believed that students should be prepared for future high skill careers. They created North Central Texas InterLink, Inc. as a nonprofit, 501c 3 organization to provide long term regional labor market information to secondary and post- secondary education districts for career and technology program planning and development, and student career and college counseling. Since then, these education systems have consistently used InterLink’s information. Their students benefit by having high skills and knowledge for further education, training, and careers, and employers in the sixteen county North Central Texas Region benefit from this initiative by having a quality workforce, with a globally competitive advantage, which supports the region’s economic development initiatives for a strong quality of life.
InterLink’s success is attributed to the number of educators and employers who contribute to InterLink by serving on the board of directors, responding to the annual survey, allowing us to participate with business webinars and visit their facilities to understand the use of current and future technology and skill needs and being involved in many other ways through the past 29 years.
