Our Relationship With the Department of Education

As part of the U.S. Department of Education “Unlocking Career Success” initiative, Ford NGL was invited to be on an exemplar panel with 300 employers to help them better understand the power of meaningful engagement with students and teachers and how that will impact student outcomes, workforce outcomes and community prosperity.  Given our unique work helping to create these meaningful relationships between a district and their community partners, we were able to share the importance of developing relationships, systems and structures that allow all stakeholders to meet their goals.  If you are interested in learning more about how to build “Powerful Partnerships,” please reach out to [email protected] for training opportunities. 

Also, we encourage you to visit the “Unlocking Career Success” website “Resource” section where you will find practical tools for supporting teachers, administrators, state agencies as well as case studies.  

This panel has led to the development of two opportunities for employers to join the Department of Education and Ford NGL for two webinars. Registration is required for each of these free events. Please visit the links below to learn more.
