MUSD Alliance Partners (MAP) for Future-Ready Learners
The economic vitality of the City of Milpitas is interconnected with its education infrastructure and workforce development strategy. The Milpitas Unified School District reaches 40,000 workforce eligible local residents on a daily basis, ages 17 - 50+, with many of the adults having advanced degrees and ability to speak multiple languages. In addition to advanced degrees, we have numerous candidates with varying skill sets, seeking local employment in Milpitas, a new Bart Station, and access to/from four major freeways (680, 880, 101, 237). The MUSD Alliance Partners (MAP) for Future-Ready Learners initiative provides the Milpitas business community a streamlined process of partnering, volunteering and recruiting MUSD workforce ready students, parents, and residents eligible for internships, apprentice programs, and employment opportunities.
Founding Member
KLA Foundation, a global technology leader located in Milpitas, has donated $750,000 to the MUSD Innovation Campus Vision. The donation allows for three years naming rights of the STEAM Lab to KLA. KLA has been a long time partner to Milpitas Unified School District. "KLA and the KLA Foundation are committed to advancing humanity by investing in our communities to create a more equitable, inclusive and accessible world. Furthering access to STEM education is at the forefront of what we do in the community, and with our headquarters right here in Milpitas, there is no better alignment with our philanthropic priorities than investing in state-of-the-art capabilities for local students. We can’t think of a better partner to carry out this work with than the Milpitas Unified School District and are so thrilled to see this vision become a reality." |
