Talent pipeline for local businesses supports college students
Briefly

A recent Student Voice survey reveals that many college students prioritize skill development in their education, yet a significant portion lacks internship experience. To combat Vermont's alarming brain drain, Champlain College has partnered with Hula, a coworking and business incubator, to create a robust talent pipeline. This collaboration has led to real-world case studies and improved employer engagement. As stated by project manager Angelika Koukoulas, the region urgently needs young talent, and the program aims to align the interests of students and employers effectively.
Champlain College's partnership with Hula aims to address Vermont's talent shortage by helping students gain meaningful work experiences and employers to access enthusiastic talent.
Over 40% of college students value skill development for their careers, yet 22% have never engaged in internships or experiential learning opportunities.
