The AIM Institute has sold Careerlink to Yahoo and Microsoft alumni, per a SPN article published today. This is part of a refocusing on the Institute's mission to train individuals for careers and to fill jobs locally. Careerlink will continue to have a local focus, but with expanded tools. Interesting development and hope the two entities will continue to progress.

I'm in AIM's aspiring leader program right now. I didn't realize they were behind Silicon Prairie News.

I can't be the only one who saw the name AIM and thought back to instant messaging in middle school

Re: AIM Institute
It's a program to learn leadership skills for those who either desire to be a leader in the future or are in the position already and wanting to grow. It focuses a lot on soft skills.Omahacritic wrote: Mon Jun 15, 2020 2:53 amTalk to me about the “Aspiring Leader” programHR Paperstacks wrote: Wed Jun 10, 2020 2:59 am I'm in AIM's aspiring leader program right now.

They bring in people from different Omaha companies each session to share their experiences. This is all normally done in a classroom, but due to covid, is being conducted online.
If you're interested, a lot of Omaha companies pay to send their employees to this. Might be something to look into.
