Talent Share Program: Join Today

In response to the challenges of COVID-19, HRSTM created an opportunity for employees to share their talents and expertise across Montgomery College. In just one month since the program launch, we have successfully matched eight employees, each participant from different areas of the College. Employees who participate in this program can increase visibility and connections to the MC community while staying safe working in remote status.

The Talent Share program participants have the opportunity to:

Collaborate with other units and teams to support departments across the College;
Increase network and connections Collegewide;
Contribute transferable skills while adding to professional growth and development.

Any questions regarding the talent sharing program can be sent to your designated HRIC. Visit the Talent Share Program web page for more information and FAQs.
