The US Navy Talent Pipeline Program
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The Department of Defense’s top priority program is the Columbia Class SSBN, which replaces the Ohio Class SSBNs.
The US Navy faces challenges in talent acquisition and workforce retention within the Defense Industrial Base. To tackle this, the Office of the Secretary
of Defense and the US Navy launched an initiative called, The Talent Pipeline Program in May 2021 focusing on small and medium Defense Industrial
Base Employers. The program aims to energize the Defense Industrial Base by connecting maritime-focused manufacturing pipelines to address
crucial trade skill gaps in the maritime and defense sectors. The Talent Pipeline Program seeks to collaborate with industry, education, and workforce
development partners to enable local employers to identify, train, hire, and retain skilled workers, ensuring a robust sector in the future.
WHAT IS THE TALENT PIPELINE PROGRAM?
An initiative underwritten in full by the US Navy, and managed by TMG of Virginia provided at NO COST to employers. It’s a new way to recruit, hire, train and retain employees in industrial manufacturing through four steps:
• Mapping current state – Recruiting thru 1st Year on the job
• Identify improvement opportunities
• Help the organization implement change
• Connect with local pipelines and resources
Learn from a network of employers across the country that are committed to supporting each other through conferences, seminars, and one on one meetings. The Talent Pipeline Program provides coaches working with you on a systematic approach with templates, and more, to deliver the training and support your organization needs to re-energize your talent systems and hire the candidates that you want. It’s easy to become a part of the Talent Pipeline Program and build a better workforce for you and in turn build a better defense industrial base.
