What does it really take to replace a statewide Case Management and Labor Exchange system?

Join our panel of state leaders who will be sharing their experience from their modernization journeys across Wyoming, Vermont, and Oregon.

Hear what states wish they knew before day one, how to manage the people side of change and driving staff adoption, how to avoid rebuilding legacy flaws on a new platform, and what these leaders would do differently today.

Happy Workforce Development Month! 🥳

NAWDP started Workforce Development Month in 2005 as a way to celebrate workforce development professionals across the country and highlight the impact that workforce development has on our communities!

Every day, our Teamers are making a difference across the country. They are the ones coaching our VIPs into an interview, turning a barrier into a plan, and working hard behind the scenes. The work may not always make headlines, but it changes lives.

Thank you to every workforce professional, workforce board, employer, and partner organization moving someone forward this month.

Sabrina’s journey is a powerful reminder that career training is about supporting the whole person!

Enrolled in the VC HEAL Healthcare Careers Program, Sabrina worked tirelessly toward becoming a Medical Assistant to build a better future for her daughter. Balancing long commutes, childcare, and extreme financial strain, she faced the very real threat of housing instability while trying to finish her education.

Working alongside her Career Advisor, Branden Mayo, Sabrina received rental assistance to secure her housing, as well as referrals to local food banks for daily necessities. With basic needs covered, she was able to focus fully on her studies, pass her certification exams, and step into the healthcare workforce.

Her hard work made such an impact that HealthStaff even invited her to consider returning as an instructor for the hands-on lab training.

Congratulations, Sabrina, on turning real perseverance into a full-circle success story, and thank you, Branden, for providing essential guidance every step of the way!
