The purpose of the Management Talent Exchange Program (MTEP) is to give small and medium sized local government agencies employee exchange opportunities so that participants can develop new experiences, competencies and relationships. The program is designed specifically to address the problem of preparing the next generation of senior managers in public agencies. It's an excellent opportunity for employees to gain essential skills for maximum career potential. We are looking for agencies to host MTEP participants. Host must identify a specific 3-month assignment including criteria for the position, competencies required, and objectives for the assignment. The host will also be asked to attend an orientation session, coach the participant throughout the exchange, attend the graduation ceremony, and provide a three-month evaluation at the completion of the assignment. Applicants for the program must submit a completed application, be recommended by their organization and be selected as a participant by the MTEP placement committee. Applications will be reviewed and matched with prospective exchange opportunities. The application consists of a current resume, supplemental questions, and a recommendation. The MTEP placement committee will make matches based on host criteria and participant interest area.
Costs: Each agency is to pay $1,000 per every participant they host. An invoice will be sent from MTEP. Fee will be waived if agencies send a participant and host a participant.
Please provide information regarding your agency's exchange opportunity. The contact information should be of the individual who will be supervising the exchange participant. There is an opportunity to add an additional contact person at the end of the form.
