What will I be doing?

Love bringing learning to life? We’re looking for you!

H-GAC is seeking an engaging, energetic Program Coordinator – Professional Development to join our Workforce Solutions team. In this corporate trainer role, you’ll facilitate dynamic in-person and virtual learning experiences, turn complex information into practical training, and help employees build the knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed.
If you’re a strong facilitator who loves connecting with learners, creating engaging experiences, and making training stick, we’d love to hear from you!

H-GAC, the fiscal agent for the Gulf Coast Workforce Board (GCWB), is striving to expand the reach of the region’s public workforce system to more employers and more people through targeted projects and the growth of systemwide learning and training initiatives.

​​​​​​​This role blends training coordination, facilitation, and collaboration. You will deliver select instructor-led and virtual trainings, coordinate logistics and communication for professional development activities, and provide technical assistance to staff in the field. You will help ensure professional development activities across the region are consistent, compliant, and impactful by monitoring alignment with PD and training guidelines, identifying gaps and strengths, and supporting continuous improvement efforts. You will also support content development by contributing to job aids, facilitator guides, and training materials aligned with adult learning principles.

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to engage diverse audiences
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities, coordinate projects, and meet deadlines
  • Proficiency in Microsoft 365 and collaboration tools; experience with SharePoint or LMS platforms a plus
 
Do you have…

  • 3 years of experience working with local government, nonprofit programs, school or in job related duties  
 
Preferred Qualifications

  • 2–4 years of relevant experience working in workforce development, government, nonprofit, or training environments
  • Experience facilitating or supporting professional development of staff training initiatives

  • Training or facilitation certifications (may be obtained within one year of employment)
  • Experience working with multiple stakeholders or regional partners
  • A critical thinker with problem-solving skills
