The Express Employment Professionals offices in Grand Junction and Montrose offers an educational program designed to help employees and jobseekers gain new skills.

“According to a recent survey from the Harris Poll, the majority of hiring decision-makers say employees must continue to fresh hard and soft skills throughout their careers to compete with colleagues,” said Nina Anderson, owner and chief executive officer of the two offices. “We hear from many Western Slope companies that the lack of hard and soft skills are what’s making the hiring process harder.”

The ExpressLearn program offers more than 100 online, mobile-friendly courses in high-demand fields covering everything from accounting and business communications to customer service and software skills. The courses are available at no charge to those registered with Express Employment Professionals.
