VTPM Executive Director, Mary Anne Sheahan

Today, the Vermont Business Roundtable announced that it has hired Mary Anne Sheahan of Shelburne, as Executive Director of the Vermont Talent Pipeline Management Program (VTPM).

“The Roundtable and its VTPM partners around the state are very excited about this important next step toward the full realization of our program, which will improve alignment of employer needs with education and workforce programs, and grow Vermont’s economy,” said Roundtable President, Lisa Ventriss.

The Vermont Talent Pipeline Management Project is an employer-led and demand-driven model created by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation to address our statewide workforce shortages. VTPM leverages lessons learned from supply-chain management and expands the role of employers as end-customers of education and workforce systems. In 2017, VTPM has focused on building employer collaboratives in the construction and health care industries. In 2018, its focus will expand into manufacturing and technology industries. (more…)
