Workforce Development Activity Update:

A collaboration of Amarillo EDC, Amarillo ISD and Amarillo College formed this past summer. The team gathered answers to many questions in today’s Amarillo workforce and formed a solution: 

PRO: Pursuing Real Opportunities
– a community-wide initiative to develop a more skilled local workforce. 

 Initially, the program will target industries that currently have the greatest workforce needs including:

  • Architecture and Construction
  • Finance
  • Manufacturing
  • Transportation, Distribution & Logistics

PRO will leverage community partnerships and resources to make high school and community college students, parents and adult career seekers aware of the career options that exist in Amarillo and the surrounding areas. PRO will bridge the gap that exists between employers/businesses and capable employees to help develop a thriving local workforce.
