The Durham Workforce Development Board (DWDB) was established by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 and is a consortium agreement between the City and County of Durham. The purpose of the board is to facilitate, plan and coordinate workforce development resources to maximize the efforts of government, business, and education.
Through collaborative partnerships, the board is the local policy organization responsible for the planning, oversight and coordination of workforce development initiatives that help support economic development in Durham. It provides leadership to the local workforce system by promoting a responsive workforce development system, providing guidance and exercising independent oversight regarding activities under the Workforce Investment Act and programs within the Durham JobLink Career Center system.
By law, the majority of board members must represent the private sector, with the balance of the board being comprised of representatives from educational, rehabilitation, public assistance and economic development agencies, community-based organizations, organized labor and the employment service.
