Employers
Look Local. Find Talent.
Texas is home to many community colleges and training providers who are already teaching the foundation skills for digital economy careers.
SkillUp West Texas makes it easy to find vetted, short-term training programs for careers that don’t require college degrees. Browse West Texas training programs to identify programs and talent that align with your hiring needs.
Local training providers are ready and willing to develop industry-aligned talent, but they need input from employers like you.
If you’re hiring now—or expect to hire in the next 6–24 months— now is the time to get ahead. Sharing your expected roles, skills requirements, and headcount is a good way to start.
Connect with Education Design Lab (EDL) to start co-designing training pathways that reflect your needs, in partnership with local colleges.
