National Skills Coalition

Training is Power

A regional narrative campaign reframing workforce training as a smart, strategic choice for women to build economic power, stability, and leadership in a changing economy.

Skills training is too often seen as a second-tier education option, limiting its viability as a pathway to good jobs - especially for women of color, who are already often steered into lower-wage training tracks. Led by National Skills Coalition (NSC) and JVS Bay Area, Training Is Power shifts that narrative by elevating women's voices and redefining jobs that require skills training as essential to thriving families, communities, and the economy - shaping public perception and policy nationwide.
