(San Antonio, TX – September 22, 2015) – By 2017 almost 31% of the
Federal Workforce will be eligible to retire. The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) Office of Information Technology (OI&T) Information
Technology Workforce Development (ITWD) has taken action to capture and
transfer the knowledge and experience of its retiring employees by
awarding a five year contract to Coley & Associates, Inc. (Coley) to
design, build, and manage its mentoring program.
Mentoring as a learning approach is an excellent method for engaging,
developing, and retaining an organization’s talent and know-how. The
mentoring program being implemented by Coley will foster an open
environment where information is shared and knowledge is transferred,
preserved and leveraged, and the wisdom and experience of seasoned
employees is shared. Such a resource leverages diversity and experience
to provide learning and development opportunities, and facilitates
personal and professional growth.
“We are excited to support the VA with our latest product offering
for enhancing the Government workforce. Our mentoring services are the
perfect solution for helping the Government recapture its substantial
investment in workforce development by leveraging the experience and
expertise of those retiring soon.” said Jack Coley, CEO.
This award builds on Coley’s record of delivering innovative
workforce development solutions to Government organizations.
