Premier Employer Partnership

Giving employers the opportunity to help train and shape the workforce that will move their industry forward

What is the Premier Employer Partnership?

Laurel’s Premier Employer Partnership leverages support from local employers to furnish students with financial resources to obtain their degree. Participating businesses and organizations play a key role during every step in the process, providing career guidance, meaningful workplace experience and the opportunity to start working immediately following graduation.

Employers benefit by developing a pipeline of local students who are trained in a relevant degree program and are engaged in both their workplace and their city or town.
