  • Molloy University Launches 'Talent Solutions' Program

Molloy University launches 'Talent Solutions' program


Adina Genn, Long Island Business News

Jim Lentini speaking at Talent Solutions Program EventTo support workforce development on Long Island, Molloy University launched its Talent Solutions program, an employer-focused initiative designed to provide customized education strategies to upskill workers and improve employee retention.
 
The university hosted a talent solutions summit, with academic and business leaders, on Tuesday, Sept. 30, in the Larini Room of the Public Square Building on its Rockville Centre campus.
 
"This is about listening to Long Island employers first and then building right-sized, right-now learning together with our partners," James Lentini, president of Molloy University, said in a news release
about the program.
 
"From short, targeted badges to stackable certificates and, ultimately, degrees, Molloy Talent Solutions is built to be responsive and resilient for Long Island's evolving economy," he added.
 
The program is designed to provide flexible education and training options that align with the needs of both employers and learners. It offers micro-badges, certificates, noncredit training and pathways that can lead to degree completion, aiming to bridge the gap between traditional blue-collar and white-collar workforce development.
 
Developed with Core Education, which works with colleges and universities, the program includes an initial catalog of approximately 300 courses and custom modules. Topics include supply chain fundamentals, business communication, healthcare skills such as phlebotomy and pharmaceutical production, as well as biotech and laboratory competencies. Employers can choose from existing course customized training tailored to specific workforce needs. Credentials earned through the program can be applied toward degree programs at Molloy.
 
Panelists included leaders such as Matt Cohen from the Long Island Association, Jamie Moore from Ignite Long Island, Rosalie Drago from Haugland Group, union representation, Molloy academic leadership and a representative from Core Education. It was moderated by Ed Thompson of Molloy University.
