For the second straight year, Virginia has earned the No. 1 ranking nationally for customized workforce training, according to the 20th annual Business Facilities Rankings Report.

The Virginia Talent Accelerator Program is a workforce development initiative led by the Virginia Economic Development Partnership, in collaboration with the Virginia Community College System, that is designed to support new facility startups.

The Virginia Talent Accelerator Program has helped secure more than 13,000 jobs across Virginia since it began, with notable success in attracting high-profile companies such as LEGO, Tyson Foods, Church & Dwight, Tate, Northrop Grumman, and Haleon, according to state officials.

“This recognition reinforces that Virginia is a reliable, sustainable business partner, and sends the message that we are the clear choice for new investment,” said Virginia Secretary of Commerce and Trade Caren Merrick.
