BESTOhio
Industry-Sector Partnership
The BESTOhio (Business & Education Success Team) of south central Ohio is a new voice for our region’s manufacturers. This industry-led sector partnership is building a better workforce through the common ground synergy of industry, education, economic development, human services organizations, and community-based organization leadership.
BESTOhio is endorsed by The Ohio Manufacturers’ Association and covers Scioto, Ross, Pike, Adams, Jackson, Vinton, Lawrence, and Highland counties.
Together, we identify issues, challenges, and opportunities common to the individual employers for the collective good of all current and future industrial and service organizations. As part of these efforts, we will better align business programs, upskilling and entry level training, innovative curriculum design, available providers, funding options, and other resources that best serve both employers and employees.
