South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce has launched a new initiative to keep veterans in our state's workforce. The STAYS Program connects #veterans with participating employers in need of their skill sets. Signing on as the first employer participant is #RichlandSC's own BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina. #DYK our state is a repeat leader for military retirees? 🧠 https://lnkd.in/efTTiDT
Congratulations to BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina for becoming the first certified South Carolina Stay To Apply Your Skills (STAYS) Program Employer!

DEW and SC Works partners provide well-rounded, intensive support to program participants wanting to find training, employment, and other assistance to build a life in South Carolina. The wonderful support of STAYS employers, such as BlueCross BlueShield, allows us to assist our state’s veterans in their career transition from military to civilian life.

Spent the evening attending Columbia Opportunity Resource | COR’s Capture Columbia spring kickoff where students and recent graduates gained a crucial skill - networking - with business leaders from across the region. I met students new to the area, current University of South Carolina students, and recent Benedict College graduates, all eager to shape their future paths. Bonus: we also heard from the Congaree Riverkeeper and Palmetto Outdoors, who highlighted one of Columbia’s best assets - our rivers. DYK? Columbia is one of the few cities with accessible whitewater rapids running right through its downtown 🌊 Our office is proud to support Columbia Opportunity Resource | COR and their efforts. With more than 50k students enrolled in higher education in #RichlandSC, investing in talent retention is key to ensuring the next generation of leaders chooses to live, work and thrive right here. #RichlandSC #ColumbiaSCregion Richland County Economic Development Office

How strong is our startup community in the Columbia region? It was standing room only for tonight’s Pitch Night at Boyd Innovation Center, powered by GrowCo. A big high five to the entrepreneurs putting themselves out there to showcase their concepts, and kudos to Caroline Crowder, MIB and Dana Watkins on their monumental efforts in helping them (and so many others) bring their ideas to life. 👏👏👏 Our office is proud to support BIC and the work it does to give startups the foundation to growing big. #RichlandSC #ColumbiaSCregion Richland County Economic Development Office
