TPM Academy of California: Southern Border Region

Please note, The TPM Academy of California: Southern Border Region​ is contingent on the organizer’s ability to secure the remainder of the necessary funding. If you are interested in supporting this TPM Academy, contact Taylor Dunne at td@sandiegobusiness.org. 

The TPM Academy® is a training developed by the U.S. Chamber Foundation that seeks to enhance partnerships between employers and their talent supply chain partners. Facilitated by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, the TPM Academy is supported by a customized curriculum that serves as an employer handbook giving participants the knowledge, skills and abilities to implement talent supply chain solutions.

In partnership with San Diego Regional EDC and Advancing San Diego (ASD), the Southern Border Region TPM Academy will bring together a cross-sector cohort of professionals—from government, nonprofits, industry organizations, chambers, and postsecondary institutions—to advance workforce development across San Diego and Imperial counties. This Academy will expand the region’s capacity to collect data on workforce needs from an employer perspective so that more industries and jobs can be covered each year.

Participants will engage with the TPM curriculum, collaborate through peer learning, and apply strategies in real-world settings. 

This is an in-person TPM Academy. All participants in the TPM Academy are required to commit to attending the training sessions listed below in their entirety. Each training will consist of lecture, group work, and community application. We recognize that attending the Academy alone will not result in change for your community—it will require your commitment to identifying, developing, and integrating tactics throughout your approach. Upon graduating the TPM Academy you will become part of the National Learning Network, a collaborative group that will support your efforts beyond your TPM Academy experience.
