Today was a great day for workforce development in the Coastal Bend!

Workforce Solutions Coastal Bend was proud to support two important Texas Workforce Commission events in Corpus Christi. Local employers gathered for the 2026 Texas Conference for Employers to learn about workforce trends, employment law updates, and valuable business resources, while education leaders and community partners celebrated the award of six Jobs and Education for Texans (JET) grants that will help expand career training opportunities across our region.

These investments in both employers and education strengthen the workforce pipeline and create more opportunities for students, job seekers, and businesses throughout the Coastal Bend.

Thank you to the Texas Workforce Commission, Chairman Joe Esparza, our education partners, and employers for their continued commitment to building a stronger workforce for Texas.
