Reach learners with intent.
Connect with people who have already identified employment as a goal and chosen to hear from your organization.

Ready Set Onward connects education, training, support, and employment so learners can move from a next-step plan toward a real career opportunity. Employers of all types can request membership, share appropriate opportunities, and become part of Ohio's education-to-career pathway network. Membership is reviewed before opportunities can appear to learners.
Connect with people who have already identified employment as a goal and chosen to hear from your organization.
When the learner chooses, they can send an Onward resume or short interest form so your team gets useful context before outreach.
Highlight entry-level roles, on-the-job training, paid internships, apprenticeships, and opportunities that can grow into long-term employment.
Ready Set Onward welcomes employers across industries. Employer profiles can describe current jobs, education or credential requirements, minimum ages, shifts, apprenticeships, work-based learning, on-the-job training when offered, benefits, tuition assistance, transportation considerations, and advancement opportunities. Employers do not need to offer training to participate.
Onward does not guarantee applicants, hires, wages, or outcomes. Employers remain fully responsible for applications, screening, background checks, hiring decisions, payroll, supervision, workplace safety, onboarding, and employment compliance.
Approval is required before your organization or opportunities can be shown to learners.
Ready Set Onward connects people whose education was interrupted with real next steps, while giving schools, workforce programs, employers, and community organizations a trusted way to participate.
