Workforce Development

Across multiple US states, helping thousands of workers redeploy and reskill in response to pandemic-related unemployment. This included the creation of coding bootcamps, aligning reskilling efforts with local employer needs, enhanced professional-development coaching, and flexible payback options to lay a strong foundation for the state’s talent ecosystem to benefit employers and employees alike

Partnering with an ecosystem of public and private institutions to establish a four-year program to train 10,000 workers across a range of skilled healthcare occupations—including medical assistants and coders—to address a skill shortage and the state’s future healthcare needs. We provided a rigorous design process, stakeholder interviews, and analyses of the employer and its skilling and credentials landscape using proprietary McKinsey tools and insights

Partnering with a large community-college system to help address the talent gaps facing employers and the supply of skilled talent to meet projected workforce demand, and connecting the region’s 19 community colleges with the area’s highest-growth industries to inspire new education and training programs, support faculty professional development, connect students to work-based learning and jobs, and strengthen business access to local talent pipelines

As part of the Rework America Alliance formed by the Markle Foundation, providing analysis that is helping workers across industries move into new jobs in the digital economy by accelerating worker training aligned to the vacancies employers need to fill now and in the future, and drawing on McKinsey’s data analytics capabilities to help identify credible job trajectories for workers to improve their wages and job security based on the enhanced skills (resume writing, training, network building coaching) that the Alliance provides
