In January 2021, MAX became metro Atlanta’s premier professional membership association for workforce developers. Since then, we have been truly grateful for the nearly 400 members who have joined us in strengthening connections, fostering collaboration, and advancing practices among workforce developers and organizations engaged in workforce development.
MAX members gain access to curated workforce resources and professional development opportunities tailored specifically to the workforce development field. Our members also build meaningful connections across the broader workforce ecosystem, increase awareness of the important work they and their organizations do to serve job seekers and employers, and collectively make a difference in the lives of our neighbors and communities.
