    Workforce Development Board of Ventura County Regional and Local Plan Update to be Discussed at January 31 Town Hall

    0

    Ventura, Calif.— Plans to increase workforce development in Ventura County through 2021 will be discussed at a Town Hall meeting on January 31, 2019. The plans, one regional and one local, were originally created in 2017 by the Workforce Development Board of Ventura County (WDB) as part of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. The public is invited to discuss the plans’ modifications at a town hall meeting Thursday, January 31 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the America’s Job Center of California (2901 N. Ventura Rd, 3rd Floor, Oxnard).

    The plans provide a detailed outline of the proposed activities of WDB, educational institutions and businesses that will lead to a high-quality, appropriately-skilled workforce ready to support the changing business needs of local employers so the region can compete in a global economic environment.

    “The workplace is always evolving. That’s why we felt it was time to update these plans so the WDB remains at the forefront to help current and future employers and employees succeed and thrive in Ventura County,” says Rebecca Evans, WDB executive director. “We invite discussion and input from the public.”

    The two current plans can be viewed by going to http://www.workforceventuracounty.org. Comments can be provided during the open house or by email to Tracy Johnson, [email protected], by March 1, 2019.
