The Indiana Governor’s Workforce Cabinet says the virtual career coaching program, InsideTrack, will assist participants in advancing towards their career goals based on their unique strengths and circumstances.
Hoosiers 18 years old and older are eligible to participate.
“This work is about empowering working adults with the sort of skills and support they need to plan their next career move, identify the right training and education options, and stand out in today’s competitive job market,” said PJ McGrew, executive director of the Governor’s Workforce Cabinet.
McGrew says individuals will gain tailored coaching support to help them plan and take action to either rejoin the workforce or determine what education or training will help them advance their current career.
The idea is to get participants to focus on their long-term goals with support from career coaches.
“We know that partnerships like InsideTrack help us connect our students with the support systems, coaching, and goal-setting they will need to be successful in the modern workforce,” said Joe McMichael, executive director of Ivy Tech Fort Wayne’s Career Coaching and Employer Connections office.
