The Birmingham Business Alliance (BBA) and the Birmingham Education Foundation have partnered to create “LaunchED,” a pilot program for talent retention that seeks to expose students to internship and job opportunities that exist in Birmingham and prepare them with life readiness tools needed for success.
LaunchED kicked off in November and is looking for employers to give Birmingham City Schools alumni internships in summer 2021 and help hone their professional development skills, with the hope of keeping their talents in the Birmingham region for years to come.
