Integration of the Arbor Business Services Model for your workforce investment/development
board will be advantageous in many ways. First it will help your board to
establish the business community as the primary customer of services provided
by the workforce development system. This is accomplished by forming strong
relationships with your economic development entities. Workforce development
is first and foremost the key element in the retention and expansion of
existing business and the recruitment of new business within your community
or region. This will establish your workforce development board as a primary
player in the business community.
Second, the development and implementation of an integrated Business Services
Team will provide consistent quality of services to the business community
and will focus on the market need or demand side of workforce development.
This is accomplished in many ways, but primarily by prioritizing, along
with your economic development partners which businesses will contribute
to the economic well being of the community and providing them with more
intensive services, including:
|
 |
Business/Employer Outreach and Relation |
 |
Supplement Economic Development Activities |
 |
Recruitment |
 |
Job Development |
 |
Incumbent/Customized Training |
 |
Labor Market Information |
The Arbor Business Services Model not only helps your board with what needs
to be included in the development of a Business Services Team and operational
plan, but comes with a cadre of nationally recognized professionals who
possess the experience and expertise to implement the model.
