<br />CENTRALINA WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD <br />fWDB) <br /> <br />General Information <br /> <br />The Centralina Workforce Development Board (WDB), in partnership with the local elected <br />officials on the Centralina Workforce Development Consortium, establishes workforce <br />investment policies and develops the local comprehensive workforce development plan for the <br />region. The WDB initiates planning, negotiation, and integration of various workforce <br />preparedness services at the local level, in addition to coordinating workforce investment <br />activities with economic development strategies. The Workforce Development Board plays a key <br />role in designing a workforce development system to better meet the needs of dislocated workers, <br />welfare clients, and others seeking to enter or re-enter the labor force as well as the needs of <br />employers. <br /> <br />Among the duties of the WDB, the chartering of JobLink Career Centers is one of the most <br />important since these "one-stop" centers have direct, daily contact with citizens in the counties. <br />The WDB is also responsible for assuring local JobReady (School-To-Work), Work First (welfare <br />reform), and Workforce Investment Act (WIA) programs and services are properly coordinated in <br />a seamless delivery system throughout the region. . <br /> <br />The Workforce Development Board replaces separate governing boards for individual federally <br />funded programs. The Centralina WDB also makes decisions about the allocation of funds, <br />provision of services through local JobLink Career Centers, monitoring activities, and <br />coordination of various local job training and education efforts under the Workforce Investment <br />Act (WIA) to further workforce preparedness in the county. <br /> <br />The core functions of the Centralina WDB are policy guidance (strategic planning and <br />establishing local objectives); coordination and negotiation (connecting and brokering activities; <br />coordinating workforce investment activities with economic development strategies; negotiating <br />local performance measures); and program oversight (program planning, labor market <br />information, career center chartering, youth activities oversight, plan review, and <br />evaluation/monitoring). <br /> <br />Membership <br /> <br />The membership of the Centralina Workforce Development Board (WDB) must meet the <br />requirements of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). While other individuals may be appointed <br />to replace current members whose terms are expiring, they must be selected from and according to <br />the conditions for the categories listed below. <br /> <br />A majority of members of the Workforce Development Board must be from the private <br />sector. The Chairperson of the Workforce Development Board shall be a Private <br />Sector member. <br /> <br />Private Sector representatives shall be selected from among individuals nominated by general <br />purpose business organizations in the county. The number of nominations shall be at least 150 <br />percent of the number of private sector individuals to be appointed in the county. Such <br /> <br />H--6 <br />
