Taking the edge pledge

​We need your help in reaching one of our goals for this year to advance the education pipeline in Greater Des Moines (DSM). Education Drives Our Greater Economy (EDGE) is designed to cultivate cradle-through-career education and training to ensure 75 percent of DSM working-age adults have degrees, certificates and other credentials by 2025 that meet workforce demands. This is a regional goal, which builds upon the State’s Future Ready Iowa initiative.
If you believe in this goal, please first take the EDGE pledge for your company to publicly show its support. By taking the EDGE pledge, your company’s name will be listed as an EDGE supporter on the Greater Des Moines Partnership’s website along with other DSM organizations that believe in attracting great talent and increasing educational attainment of our workforce. Once you take the pledge, visit the EDGE page on The Partnership’s website to see examples large and small of how other companies and organizations have helped advance the goal and get ideas about how you may be able to have an impact.
Thank you for supporting EDGE and for your continued support of the Greater Des Moines Partnership and your local Chamber.
