What type of partnerships are there and how long are they?
There are several options available. Frequently scheduled activities include company
tours, classroom presentations, clinicals, interviews on campus, job shadowing, and
more!
Partnership length varies by the type of activity. Activities can be recurring or
held once. For example, company tours typically last around an hour and company presentations
are usually about a half hour. Clinicals at local hospitals typically require the
most time commitment.

How can this benefit my company?
There are several ways a partnership can benefit you and your company. Here are just
a few:
• Face-to-face contact with potential interviewees/job candidates. • Quickly and efficiently widen your candidate pool. • Company mention during information sessions and marketing materials. • Recognition on our Economic & Workforce Development Facebook page. • Making a positive impact on new workforce entering the field. • We might even give you some free OCC swag!

When are the partnerships held?
We incorporate employer engagement with our short-term training programs. Timing varies
depending on when the training program is in session. Typically, classes are held
during the day at one of the OCC campuses. |

Is there a cost?
There is no cost to become involved! We’re just looking for employers to help us make
connections for the students and give them learning opportunities. |
