Central Indiana employers have been clear: make engagement with schools easy, consistent, and impactful—and they will participate. EmployIndy is delivering on that expectation through a coordinated, employer‑driven approach to talent development.
On April 16, EmployIndy convened education and industry partners from across Marion County at the Central Indiana Educational Service Center (CIESC) to advance this work. The full‑day partner meeting focused on aligning high school career pathways with real workforce needs, strengthening student experiences, and simplifying how businesses engage with schools.
During the morning session, employers and educators reviewed pathway branding, explored labor market insights tied to employability skills, and discussed scalable models for industry engagement. The message from business leaders was consistent: when partnerships are streamlined and outcomes are clear, employer participation grows.
The afternoon shifted to action. Educators examined current pathway offerings, aligned on a standardized partnership handbook process, and reviewed the 9th–12th Grade Guaranteed Experiences Continuum—ensuring students gain meaningful exposure to careers before graduation. This intentional alignment helps employers connect with better‑prepared candidates while reducing the burden of navigating multiple school partnerships.
This work is led through the Career Collaborative, a partnership between EmployIndy and CIESC grounded in the Partners for Professions framework. By creating a centralized partnership hub, standardizing engagement, and aligning pathways with labor market demand, the collaborative transforms work‑based learning into a strategic talent development solution—one that delivers real return on investment for employers.
As Indiana implements new work‑based learning requirements for the Class of 2029, employers have a timely opportunity to shape the future workforce, strengthen hiring pipelines, and support long‑term workforce sustainability.
This is not just community engagement. It is workforce strategy.

More than 2,800 job openings available through a year-round employment platform connecting Indianapolis youth to opportunity
INDIANAPOLIS – March 18, 2026—This morning, Mayor Joe Hogsett, EmployIndy, and employer partner AMC Theatres kicked off the summer hiring season by announcing a hiring event for the movie theatre locations across the city. Project Indy is currently offering 2,894 unique job openings for young people across Marion County, spanning 257 different positions from 174 active local employers. Through its online platform at projectindy.net, young people can easily connect with employers in their community who are hiring.
“With yet another year of Project Indy comes another fantastic opportunity for young people to gain real-life work experience and earn respectable wages,” said Mayor Hogsett. “Not only does this program set them up for success, but it also ensures that they have a safe, productive way to spend their free time this summer. Project Indy represents a win for our youth, the City, and employers across Indianapolis.”
Project Indy was launched in 2016 by Mayor Hogsett alongside EmployIndy, the Greater Indianapolis Progress Committee (GIPC), and the Marion County Commission on Youth (MCCOY). Since its launch, 20,656 young people in Marion County have registered on the Project Indy platform to connect with employment opportunities and explore career pathways with local employers.In total, 354 employers have participated in the platform since 2016.
While many people associate Project Indy with summer jobs, the platform operates year-round, connecting young people ages 16–24 with part-time, full-time and seasonal employment opportunities across Marion County.
Youth ages 16–24 can get started using Project Indy’s virtual job board by simply texting “ProjectIndy” to 317-659-9657. This easy-to-use online platform utilizes text messaging to recruit and onboard job seekers. It also includes a location-based tool that works to connect youth to nearby opportunities as well as filtering job opportunities by interest. Once registered, job seekers can easily apply to any of the hundreds of open positions by providing a few pieces of basic information.
By hiring in-school and out-of-school youth throughout Marion County, local employers provide employability skill development and job-readiness training, playing an important role in training our future workforce. Programs like Project Indy also help connect young people to positive opportunities that support long-term success.
“At EmployIndy, our goal is to connect young people to opportunity while helping employers build strong talent pipelines for the future,” said Ken Clark, president and CEO of EmployIndy. “Through Project Indy, young people gain valuable work experience while local employers connect with motivated young talent across our community.”
EmployIndy, which administers Project Indy, will continue promoting the platform through face-to-face recruiting at Indianapolis-area high schools, targeted social media campaigns and participation in youth hiring fairs. The organization also works closely with community organizations and workforce partners to ensure young people across Indianapolis are aware of and able to access available opportunities.
In 2018, EmployIndy, in partnership with the City of Indianapolis and the Indy Chamber, launched Job Ready Indy, an online employability skills program designed to help young people build the workplace skills needed for career success. When an individual completes one of the online courses, a Job Ready Indy badge appears on their Project Indy profile, notifying employers that they have demonstrated key workplace readiness skills.
Employers interested in hiring youth can sign up to be a Project Indy partner through the Project Indy platform.
EmployIndy’s Company Culture Cohort for Choice Employers supported organizations across industries as they worked to strengthen workplace culture. The program focused on engagement, retention, trust, leadership, recognition, and respect—helping employers align company culture with job quality through intentional, measurable strategies.
Designed to help organizations assess and shape their workplace culture, the cohort included Connor Painting, EnPower Inc., and Lutheran Family and Child Services. Sessions encouraged employers to focus on one or two priority goals rather than attempting broad change all at once, and featured expert guest speakers and practical, relevant content. Up to three staff members per company participated, with meals and materials provided.
Lutheran Family and Child Services shared how the cohort supported its efforts to align workplace culture with its mission-driven values of being, belonging, and becoming. Through coaching and peer learning, the organization reinforced practices aimed at helping staff feel supported, valued and encouraged to grow, strengthening trust and leadership across the agency.
EnPower Inc., a U.S.-based lithium-ion battery startup, highlighted how the cohort helped guide intentional culture-building during a period of organizational growth. By participating in cohort discussions and using shared tools, EnPower explored ways to elevate employee voice, strengthen recognition and apply feedback to future engagement strategies.
During an open forum portion of a session, one participating employer said, “I just want to say how happy I am to be part of this cohort. It’s been so informative already, and I’m excited for this year of coaching.”
By combining expert guidance, peer learning and focused goal-setting, EmployIndy’s Company Culture Cohort helped employers strengthen workplace culture and invest in long-term success.
EmployIndy’s Choice Employers program works with businesses to give them hands-on support to improve the areas that matter most to their workforce, with an emphasis on good wages, culture & equity, employee supports, and career pathways. Last year, EmployIndy invested $23.5 million in expanding access, improving job quality, and advancing workers through employer partnerships, with $5.81 million in increased wages through our Good Wages Initiative.

Indiana’s new high school graduation requirements are ushering in a new era of career readiness, and the hospitality industry is stepping up to lead the way.
Under the state’s mandate requiring 75 hours of work-based learning for students pursuing the Honors Enrollment Seal Plus diploma, industry leaders, led by the Indiana Tourism Association, have come together to create a structured, meaningful experience designed to prepare students for real-world success.
The collaborative effort—made up of tourism and hospitality organizations across the state—aims to introduce high school students to the dynamic hospitality industry through hands-on learning. The group’s draft framework outlines a flexible, community-driven and career-focused program that exposes students to multiple facets of the industry.
What’s in the plan?
The proposed program emphasizes several key components:
Rotational experiences: Students will complete no fewer than 20 hours in key sectors such as hotels, restaurants, attractions, destination marketing and event management.
Industry orientation: A kickoff session will introduce students to tourism’s statewide structure, customer service fundamentals and career pathways.
Real-world skills: From shadowing hotel front desk staff to assisting with event setups, students will experience workplace culture and responsibilities firsthand.
Capstone reflection: An optional final project will encourage students to synthesize their learning and showcase their growth.
Why it matters
Work-based learning is more than a requirement—it serves as a bridge between education and employment. By engaging students early, industries such as hospitality can:
Build a pipeline of skilled, motivated talent.
Strengthen community connections by demonstrating how tourism supports local economies.
Help students make informed decisions about future education and career paths.
What’s next
The group is actively refining evaluation rubrics and developing implementation toolkits, including application templates, partner expectations and hour-tracking logs. Community rollout will involve identifying lead coordinators, partnering with local schools and creating onboarding resources for participating organizations.
This initiative goes beyond compliance to emphasize collaboration. By working together, industry partners are helping ensure Indiana students graduate not only with diplomas but with meaningful, career-relevant experiences.
Organizations interested in shaping Indiana’s future workforce are encouraged to get involved. To learn more, contact Sam Foist, Manager, Business Partnerships, at [email protected].

Ken Clark is now leading organization’s efforts to expand access to quality jobs and workforce training in Marion County
INDIANAPOLIS — Today, December 8, 2025, EmployIndy, Marion County’s Workforce Development Board, announced Ken Clark as its new president and CEO. Effective December 8, Clark succeeds Marie Mackintosh who has led the organization under Mayor Joe Hogsett and his administration since October 2022. Clark joined EmployIndy in June 2023 as executive vice president of finance and administration. In July 2025, he was named the executive vice president of programmatic operations, where he led strategy, delivery and performance of the organization’s workforce development portfolio.
During Clark’s time with EmployIndy, he has guided the organization’s finance, human resources, and technology functions. He managed a $26 million budget, developed and implemented key performance indicators to strengthen accountability across teams, and redesigned operational processes to ensure compliance with federal, state, local and philanthropic workforce funding requirements. His systems-building work has helped serve as the operational backbone of EmployIndy’s programmatic impact.
“I feel incredibly grateful to be taking the helm at EmployIndy in this pivotal time.” said Clark. “We make a real difference in our residents’ lives at every stage of their careers, from young people in school exploring career paths all the way to reskilling late-in-career adults who need a new path to support their families. Our work is at the center of our community. The hope that comes with a new career opportunity—and the pride that comes with the ability to support yourself and your family—is a powerful mission we get to serve.”
By 2031, 72% of jobs in the U.S. will require education or training beyond high school according to Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce. Yet only 43% of adults in Marion County hold an associate degree or higher.
In EmployIndy’s most recent program year, 7,478 residents connected with personalized career coaching, training, and supportive services—either directly or through community partnerships—to improve their qualifications and meet the need of today’s job market. In addition to supporting jobseekers and community organizations, EmployIndy has built relationships with more than 1,200 Indianapolis employers through programs like Talent Bound and its Good Wages Initiative.
“Ken brings a rare combination of financial expertise, operational leadership, and passion for public service,” said Elizabeth Rovazzini, EmployIndy’s board chair and president of B&W Plumbing and Heating. “His steady leadership has already strengthened EmployIndy from within, and we’re excited for him to build on that foundation as president and CEO. Our board is confident he will guide the organization forward with vision, accountability, and heart.”
Clark brings more than 15 years of relevant experience to this role. Prior to joining EmployIndy, Clark served as the city controller and director of the office of finance and management for the City of Indianapolis and Marion County, where he oversaw the city’s finance, procurement, HR and real estate functions. In this role, he led major job-quality advancements for 7,000 municipal employees, including more than $15 million in salary adjustments to create more equitable and competitive compensation. Clark also managed the allocation of $597 million in federal recovery funds, supporting community services and workforce development initiatives during a period of unprecedented need.
Earlier in his career, Clark held multiple executive roles at the Information Services Agency, including chief information officer, chief operating officer, and chief financial officer. He led citywide technology modernization efforts, improved IT customer satisfaction from 73% to 90%, and reshaped the agency’s funding model to support sustainable investment in digital infrastructure. His leadership contributed to the City of Indianapolis receiving the Mira Award for Corporate Innovator of the Year and earned him the Indianapolis Business Journal’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of the Year Award in 2018. Clark received a Master of Public Affairs from Indiana University Bloomington and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Southern Indiana.
INDIANAPOLIS — EmployIndy staff, board members, community partners and local leaders gathered Dec. 3 at The AMP at 16 Tech to honor Marie Mackintosh for her contributions as she prepares to take on a new role with Indiana University Indianapolis.
Mackintosh has served as president and CEO of EmployIndy since fall 2022, leading efforts to build strategic partnerships and create opportunities that empower Marion County residents to pursue careers aligned with employer demand. She first joined the organization as chief operations officer in 2016, and her leadership has been key in advancing initiatives such as the New Skills Ready Network Collaborative, Modern Apprenticeship, Talent Bound, Rapid Re-Employment Response and the Good Wages Initiative.
Reflecting on her time with the organization, Mackintosh told the team, “I really respect each and every one of you and your grit, your resilience, your commitment to serving our community, our residents and our businesses in a really thoughtful way. I’m very grateful to all of you.”
Under her direction, EmployIndy launched a three-year strategic plan focused on preparing students and workers for 21st-century jobs through career-connected learning, access to career coaches and equitable postsecondary options. The plan also emphasizes business engagement, helping employers remain competitive by co-creating talent pipelines, promoting inclusive and high-quality employment and connecting to a diverse, well-prepared workforce — steps critical to Indianapolis’ continued economic growth.
During the event, Mackintosh received a commemoration from U.S. Rep. André Carson and a proclamation from Mayor Joe Hogsett. She shared a personal reflection, saying, “As some of you may know, I am a musical theater girl at heart. And to borrow this moment from ‘Wicked,’ what I want to say is that ‘because I know you, I have changed for good.’ That line really hits when I think about how many people here have helped me have that change in my life. And so I’m just very grateful.”
Mackintosh will begin her new role Dec. 8 as vice chancellor for workforce and community engagement at IU Indianapolis. Her vision and dedication have left a lasting impact on the community, shaping opportunities for residents and businesses and driving progress toward a more inclusive and prosperous Indianapolis.
Closing the event, Mackintosh said, “Thank you for trusting me and for challenging me and for believing alongside me and really reminding me every day what community really means.”
Dear Partners and Friends,
This past year demanded resilience and collaboration. As we look back on 2024–2025, I’m proud to share how our work together expanded opportunities and strengthened career pathways for residents and employers across Indianapolis.
Our partners, staff, and community came together to connect individuals to career pathways, strengthen employer-led solutions, and help people gain the skills and confidence they need to succeed in a changing economy. More than 7,400 residents engaged in coaching and training, over 38,000 career-connected learning experiences happened throughout the ecosystem, and employer partners helped generate more than $5.8M in increased wages through job quality initiatives. This progress reflects the collective strength of our workforce ecosystem.
It also reflects the strength of our shared commitment — to access, collaboration, and ensuring every resident of Marion County has the chance to succeed. Because at its core, Employing Indy means empowering Indy — strengthening pathways that help residents build skills, find purpose, and access opportunity.
As I share this report, I do so with both pride and gratitude. After more than three years as President + CEO, and nearly ten years with EmployIndy, I will be stepping down on December 5, 2025. Stewarding EmployIndy’s mission has been an extraordinary privilege and defining chapter in my career. I am deeply thankful to our Board of Directors, staff, and partners for their dedication and steadfast support, and I am confident that EmployIndy will continue empowering residents and employers to reach their full potential for years to come.
As we celebrate this year’s progress, I also invite you to join us in the spirit of Giving Tuesday on December 2. Your continued support — through partnership, advocacy, or investment — helps EmployIndy expand access to opportunities for Indianapolis residents. Together, we can build pathways that strengthen our community and our workforce for years to come.
Thank you for continuing to champion this mission. Together, we are powering potential across Indianapolis.
With gratitude, Marie Mackintosh President + CEO, EmployIndy

Jerry Harrell, Talent Acquisition Consultant for the State of Indiana, has successfully hired 30 candidates with support from EmployIndy.

EmployIndy and Ascend Indiana have partnered with Ascension St. Vincent to design a best-practice Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) training program, supported by American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds through the City of Indianapolis. This initiative creates a sustainable pathway for adults seeking CMA certification and employment while directly addressing critical staffing shortages in the healthcare sector.
“The significant demand for highly skilled Certified Medical Assistants (CMAs) led Ascension St. Vincent to connect with EmployIndy,” said Rachel Callahan, a Certified Medical Assistant at Ascension. ““With a projected 15% growth in healthcare jobs, we needed to build internal talent and attract new professionals to fill open roles.”
A major barrier that Ascension St. Vincent observed was the financial strain of unpaid externships on students, which often led to low completion rates. “The perception was that students did not take their externships seriously, partly because completing unpaid externships created a significant financial burden for them,” Callahan noted.
With leadership from EmployIndy and Ascend Indiana, healthcare providers shared best practices, and ARPA funding enabled stipends for externship participants—boosting completion and reducing financial stress.
The program’s impact is reflected in participants like Sparkle R., who transitioned from customer service to healthcare at age 30 despite fearing it was too late to make a career change. Inspired by her child with autism, she aimed to create more comforting experiences for patients with disabilities. “This program gave me the confidence and skills I needed,” she said. Sparkle now works at AMG Cardiology and aspires to become a Cardiac Sonographer.
Looking ahead, Ascension hopes to expand the partnership with EmployIndy. “Funding cuts are affecting our ability to sponsor students,” Callahan noted. “We’re exploring sustainable models to continue offering paid externships.”
