This period marked the successful onboarding of 14 new employers, increasing the total count to 22. Additionally, there was a significant rise in job seeker registrations, with the platform reaching a total of 381 active job seekers by the end of FY24-25 Q1. Notable additions include Oasis Behavioral Health Hospital, IntraEdge, Laser Components, Gummi World, and Arizona Nutritional Supplements. In response to a growing demand in the healthcare sector, we strategically expanded our focus beyond our initial emphasis on manufacturing, thereby supporting a wider range of employment needs, with a plan to include employers from outside of these industry clusters on a case-by-case basis. Looking ahead, our next "Lunch and Learn" event scheduled for October is poised to onboard a significant new cohort of employers, which will further increase the amount of Chandler-based positions on the Chandler Career Center.
