Through partners including Arizona State University, the Maricopa Community Colleges District, Maricopa Corporate College and Scottsdale Community College the Scottsdale team can assist with ensuring your new and potential employees are up to the task. This assistance includes helping companies access tailored training programs, in some cases obtaining funding to defer the costs.

Talent Accelerator Initiative

The Scottsdale economic development team has developed a robust talent attraction strategy which includes:

• Programs designed to connect hiring managers and human resources professionals
• The city hosts regional events for talent attraction professionals to foster a spirit of collaboration amongst our recruitment partners and provide an environment to discuss best practices.

Scottsdale is part of the Greater Phoenix area, a regional economy with a significant labor force available to meet business needs as well as higher educational and vocational training resources to develop the labor force of the future or train employees to have the skills needed to grow your company.

Companies in the city import a significant workforce from the Greater Phoenix area, and many Scottsdale residents who are employed work in locations around the valley.
