Additional Culture Details
The Indiana Office of Technology (IOT) has taken an innovative and creative approach to developing talent for the next generation of IT, and the agency has done so with a commitment and diligence toward supporting career transitions into brand-new skill areas. As the IT backbone of Indiana’s executive branch, IOT has a tremendous mandate to provide cost-effective, reliable services to an enterprise that covers the breadth of citizen-facing services. Instead of lamenting the lack of available talent in the public sector IT space – especially in the midst of the “Great Resignation” – IOT instead forged its path with a solution that has strengthened mission needs while providing talented adults with unique workplace opportunities . The result is a “workforce solution deemed the most aggressive reskilling program in the public sector today” (Alliance for Digital Innovation) and one nationally recognized by the National Association of State Chief Information Officers.
