Workforce Partnerships Ivy Tech’s role as Indiana’s largest public postsecondary institution and its extensive campus network across the state presents strong opportunities for scalable workforce development programs, employer-aligned training partnerships, and customized certificate pathways for regional employers.

Industry-Aligned Funding Recent grant activity and new pathway development in advanced manufacturing indicate openness to funded collaborations and grant-based projects with industry partners, ideal for co-invested upskilling initiatives and equipment modernization.

Community Engagement Active participation in scholarship events and work-based learning projects (including school partnerships and city transit programs) signals a receptive audience for sponsorships, talent pipelines, and community-focused STEM/skill programs.

Technology and Cloud Readiness Ivy Tech’s tech stack (AWS, Azure, analytics and marketing tech) suggests opportunities to offer cloud, cybersecurity, data analytics, and digital transformation services to modernize campus IT, student services, and institutional operations.
