WHY use this center

This Human Capital Resource Center is designed as the source for helping Ohio educators make decisions about finding, supporting, and elevating the people working in our districts. In classrooms, offices, and school-related areas, a variety of caring, competent, and committed adults can and do make a difference for students. 

Our goals through this resource center are to

  • Promote the importance of improving human capital management systems (HCMS) in education

  • Move beyond isolated policies and actions to a comprehensive approach to human capital management

  • Help all educators recognize their responsibilities as human capital leaders

  • Develop meaningful partnerships across the state and within local districts and schools.

And, ultimately, to ensure in Ohio, each child is challenged, prepared, and empowered.
