Resources to Support Workforce Development Boards
About
Workforce Development Boards (WDBs) play a critical role in contributing to healthy regional economies that serve the needs of business and workers. WDBs function in multiple roles—as a steward of Federal and non-Federal funds, overseeing a host of operational systems and processes, and as the primary architects of the State’s overall workforce strategy.
This month, we are pleased to highlight a number of resources and successful programs operated by state and local workforce development boards. These include a toolkit intended to assist WDBs in becoming more strategic and effective, as well as case studies, webinars, on-line training for board members, and links to national organizations that foster and support state and local workforce development boards. We have created this resource page that provides you with quick access to these resources.
