CENTRALINA WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD <br /> <br />(WDB) <br /> <br />General Information <br /> <br />The Centralina Workforce Development Board (WDB), in partnership with the local elected officials on <br />the Centralina Workforce Development Consortium, establishes workforce investment policies and <br />develops the local comprehensive workforce development plan for the region. The WDB initiates <br />planning, negotiation, and integration of various workforce preparedness services at the local level, in <br />addition to coordinating workforce investment activities with economic development strategies. The <br />Workforce Development Board plays a key role in designing a workforce development system to better <br />meet the needs of dislocated workers, welfare clients, and others seeking to enter or re-enter the labor <br />force as well as the needs of employers. <br /> <br />Among the duties of the WI)B, the chartering of JobLink Career Centers is one of the most important <br />since these "one-stop" centers have direct, daily contact with citizens in the counties. The WDB is also <br />responsible for assuring local JobKeady (School-To-Work), Work First (welfare reform), Welfare-to- <br />Work (WtW), 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 funded <br />programs. The Centralina WDB also makes decisions about the allocation of funds, provision of <br />services through local JobLink Career Centers, monitoring activities, and coordination of various local <br />job training and education efforts under the Workforce Investment Act (WlA) to further workforce <br />preparedness in the county. <br /> <br />The core functions of the Centralina WDB are policy guidance (strategic planning and establishing local <br />objectives); coordination and negotiation(connecting and brokering activities; coordinating workforce <br />investment activities with economic development strategies; negotiating local performance measures); <br />and program oversight (program planning, labor market information, career center chartering, youth <br />activities oversight, plan review, and 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 to <br />replace current members whose terms are expiring, they must be selected from and according to the <br />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 Workforee Development Board shall be a Private <br />Sector member. <br /> <br /> <br />
