Who We Are

Talent Together is an innovative partnership led by 56 Michigan Intermediate School Districts, supported by the Michigan Educator Workforce Initiative in collaboration with 18 Colleges and Universities.

Intermediate School Districts (ISDs) and Regional Education Service Agencies (RESAs) serve children all across Michigan. By coordinating efforts and resources, ISDs provide specialized services to students that would not be affordable/feasible otherwise. These services can include special education, vocational training, interdisciplinary subjects, language programs, early childhood education, parent services, community involvement, transportation, extracurricular activities, lifelong learning and adult education, and other necessary and exciting benefits are shared across districts for the success of every learner.
