Melanie Gilders and Anita Smith
-Workforce Development Update |
Anita Smith and Melanie Gilders were
present to update the Board on matters involving Workforce
Development. Ms. Gilders explained that there are WIA eligible
customers that are enrolled in their services and receive
funding for training and services. She further explained that
there are “universal customers” that come in for the purpose of
using equipment and other resources available in the resource
room. Commissioner Genter stated that citizens have voiced
concerns relating to these processes. Ms. Gilders explained
that when someone comes in, they identify their needs and see
which direction they wish to go, whether they need a job or need
to improve their job, whether they need training or schooling
and if they are willing to continue through such. She explained
the criteria for WIA eligible customers and further stated that
for customers that are not eligible, there is only a certain
amount that they are allowed to do due to restrictions of the
WIA program. She stated that there are staffing issues and to
remedy that problem, they would need additional dollars outside
of the WIA program. Commissioner Genter stated that they should
check into getting volunteers, or collaborate with an
independent non-profit organization to work around the WIA
restrictions. Commissioner Short inquired how their system is
used to match up clients with companies that are searching for
employees and vice versa. He stated that he feels that the WIA
eligible clients are being helped, however that the “universal
customers” are slipping through the cracks and that a system
should be created to better match the clients with the companies
that need them. Commissioner Genter and Short both stated that
Workforce Development should better coordinate with Economic
Development to help those that are not under the WIA umbrella
and to take a more pro-active approach. |
