WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD MEMBERSHIP
The
Workforce Investment Board (WIB) recognizes that our principal assets
are informed and dedicated members. The members of this board are the
driving forces behind planning the service strategy of the workforce
development system. This private sector
driven, public board grants authority to local business
decision-makers. The WIB provides direction to public sector
agencies with regards to local business needs and youth services.
Members of the WIB are responsible for carrying information back to the
agencies and organizations they represent to ensure that there is a
unified effort in meeting the identified local needs.
One of the
greatest strengths of the WIB is
representation from each of the Local Workforce Investment Area’s three
counties (Alpine, El Dorado and Placer).
This
comprehensive membership allows the members of this dynamic board the
ability to effect change in a multitude of communities.
The board’s eight
functions are to:
- Develop a local strategic workforce
investment plan;
- Coordinate the workforce investment
activities in the local area with economic development strategies, and
develop other employer linkages;
- Promote the participation of private
sector employers in the statewide workforce investment system;
- Selection or designation of the One-Stop
operator;
- Identification of program activities and
providers for youth, adults, and dislocated workers;
- Negotiation of local performance
measures;
- Conduct oversight of youth and adult
local employment and training activities and the One-Stop delivery
system;
- Assist the
governor in developing an employment statistics system.
VISION, MISSION,
STRATEGIC AREAS
By way of
introducing the WIB to our communities, we have high hopes for our
continued economic vitality and workforce readiness.
Our WIB Vision anticipates dynamic
communities with a richly diversified economy attractive both to
employers who create and sustain jobs as well as individuals who bring
knowledge and skills to those jobs.
In that context, we take our WIB work seriously. We
believe that we can make a positive difference by our conscientious
discussions and decisions about workforce readiness.
The WIB Mission
that drives our agenda is that we lead, with other community partners,
in preparing knowledgeable and skilled people for today and tomorrow's
workforce.
We would like to direct our WIB's attention and
energy into three Strategic Areas.
Identifying key economic development and
workforce development trends and issues which impact our
communities' futures;
Engaging labor market supply and demand
representatives in the analysis of those trends and issues as
well as in setting the directions for improving our workforce and our
communities' capacities to prepare that workforce;
Setting policy for the workforce
investment system and recommending policy for workforce development
designed to assure a solid worker preparation infrastructure;
For the WIB to be
effective collectively, each of its members owes their best thinking
and best judgment on substantive issues. We look forward to
candid expression of ideas and opinions among colleagues who respect
our differences as well as our similarities.
