Strategic Initiatives

Workforce Development

Workforce development, including housing, recruitment, training and retention, are key to promoting Chamber businesses and ensuring successful economic development. Through communications with area accommodations, clubs, retailers, restaurants, trades & services, educational institutions, and other industries, we promote Cashiers and surrounding communities as a prime workforce destination. Efforts include the implementation and maintenance of www.CashiersAreaJobs.com, organization of the annual Cashiers Area Job Fair, and ongoing outreach on social media, via banner display, press publications and email. We also work with stakeholders on increasing housing diversity, training programs and employment incentives.
