Workforce Training

WorkKeys® isn’t the only key to Montgomery County’s rock-solid workforce foundation – a uniquely strong network of state resources underpins the county’s carefully aimed and coordinated job training efforts that assure both custom-tailored training and critical employer support. Together, Mississippi’s local WIN employment center and Holmes Community College (HCC) work as a team with Montgomery County’s Economic Development staff to answer every employer need, from startup through expansion. That includes recruitment, targeted skills training at either HCC or on the shop floor, and even training for expansion.

Montgomery County is, simply put, the Winner’s Circle – the 120-mile radius with Winona-Montgomery County at its center, providing fast easy access to the entire region, from Memphis, TN, to Jackson, MS; from Mississippi’s Golden Triangle to Oxford to the Delta. And the Winner’s Circle doesn’t just promise proximity, it also means cross-roads connections in a strategic convergence of interstate and U.S. highways, rail, and air, promising coast-to-coast, cost-effective reach from Mexico to Canada.
