Talent & Workforce
The Thomasville-Thomas County Chamber is proud to come together and partner with the Thomasville-Thomas County Development Authority to provide our members and community residents with resources and information on workforce development and job opportunities in Thomas County. Workforce development impacts businesses, organizations, and employees. Recruiting, staffing, training, education, retention, and up-skilling are all key factors in developing the workforce and maintaining qualified candidates as an employer.
"In Miami, earning $45,000 a year as a cabinet maker means living below the poverty line, but in Thomasville, Georgia, it qualifies as middle income," shares Ian Quinton. Reflecting on his move from Miami due to rising costs and deteriorating quality of life, he adds, "I left the city's rising overhead and endless traffic, now enjoying a seven-minute commute." Quinton anticipates brighter futures for his workers' children, some of whom will be the first in their families to attend college. International Design & Display Group, LLC
