Healthcare organizations nationwide continue to grapple with staffing shortages, high turnover and rising costs. Meanwhile, The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates there will be nearly 1.9 million healthcare job openings per year through 2032, underscoring the urgent need for sustainable workforce solutions.
Tandem Workforce facilitates direct connections between healthcare employers and a vast network of academic partners through streamlined placement cohorts, a method shown to reduce recruiting costs by up to 90% and potentially triple retention rates for sponsored roles. Together with Nasium’s dynamic training programs, these cohorts form a reliable, high-retention pipeline of skilled talent.
Nasium delivers adaptable, hands-on education that rapidly upskills individuals for critical roles in Limited Scope Radiology, Sterile Processing, Medical Assisting, Pharmacy Technology and other allied healthcare disciplines. Tandem complements this by sponsoring talent, giving their training investments a greater chance to translate into long-term employment and stable career paths.
This partnership is designed to scale, beginning with radiography and expanding across additional healthcare specialties while integrating AI-driven talent matching and ongoing professional development. Though currently focused on healthcare, the Tandem model is applicable to other sectors facing skilled talent shortages.
"We are thrilled to partner with Tandem to further our purpose to address the dire shortage of clinical workers, especially in the vital roles of medical assistant and pharmacy technicians. This partnership represents an incredible opportunity to expand access to high-quality training, helping allied healthcare professionals improve their current skills and advance their careers while helping employers secure the talent they need. By working together, we’re not just addressing workforce shortages, we are strengthening healthcare teams, improving patient care and driving lasting industry growth,” said Felicia Davis, VP of Workforce Solutions, Nasium Training.
"We are excited to collaborate with Nasium Training to expand access to critical career pathways in healthcare,” said Jeff Groeber, CEO and Founder, Tandem Workforce. “This partnership is about more than just training -- it’s about creating meaningful steppingstones for career advancement while helping our employer partners retain the high-quality talent they depend on.”
