MetroConnect features tours of city projects led by and for Metro employees. These behind-the-scenes tours provide Metro General Government employees with professional development, a chance to meet colleagues across departments, and insights into what's happening at Metro. Our Sustainability Audit Checklist encourages Metro employees to turn inspiration into action by taking stock of how their workplace can go green.
MetroConnect is brought to you by the Departments of General Services and Human Resources. Read the 2023 MetroConnect Annual Report to learn more. Video recordings of past years' virtual tours can be found on our YouTube playlist. For questions or to request accommodation, contact Jennifer Westerholm at 615-862-5043 or [email protected].
