Initiatives

Goal 1

Prepare our most vulnerable students and graduates of 2020-2023 for security and success in the post-pandemic economy

  • Employ NV Career Hubs: CSN's Strategic Workforce Reemployment Plan College of Southern Nevada

    Employ NV Career Hubs are designed to address the changing demands of Nevada's economy by launching six one-stop career reskilling centers across Southern Nevada, connecting trained students with high-demand skills to employers who need them. These career centers – strategically located in regions where traditionally underserved communities have been hit hard by the COVID-19 economic crisis – provide a comprehensive approach to reskilling, offering credential opportunities, job placement, and accelerated degree programs. By providing students with the training and skills needed to enter a new, technologically-driven workforce, the initiative serves both CSN's diverse student body and employers across Southern Nevada and the State.

Goal 2

Support and partner with our communities and government in an inclusive recovery through and after COVID-19, focusing on displaced workers, adult learners, PK-12 systems, economic development, community health and COVID-19 support

  • Harnessing the Power of the Ability to Benefit: Creating College Access for Adult Learners College of Southern Nevada

    The economic shutdown has displaced many workers in Southern Nevada, an economy which is heavily reliant on hospitality and tourism. Many minority communities in Southern Nevada have been significantly impacted by the pandemic, and the College of Southern Nevada's (CSN) Ability to Benefit program will facilitate serving students that have historically been underserved or do not have the resources to access short term training through Workforce Education and Training programs, either for lack of resources to cover tuition costs or due to having minimal resources to continue their career pathway that leads into a credit program and credentialing.
