    Talent at the Table

    Bringing future workforce talent to the table.

    About the Program

    Talent at the Table is a Chamber luncheon workforce connection program designed to bring students and emerging workforce talent into the room with Interior Alaska’s business, civic, and community leaders.

    The goal is to create earlier, more organic connections between employers and our future workforce. By introducing participants to local business, civic, and policy conversations, the program helps students and emerging professionals build confidence in a professional environment while supporting workforce development and young leader engagement in Interior Alaska.

    The experience is designed to be welcoming, connection-focused, and professional without being intimidating.
