Workforce Training
Now more than ever, the value of your business is determined by the skills and abilities of your employees. Our U.S. businesses invest in significantly in talent and training to ensure that they are globally competitive and upgrading the skillsets of existing workforce or incoming workforce is an ongoing critical need.
The Southwest Washington Workforce Development Council (SWWDC) secures and manages training grants and opportunities for our top local employers, as well as small-and-medium sized businesses. We have facilitated customized on-site training, certification training, online training, and consortium-style classroom training through key partners. If you are not sure what you need, contact your Business Concierge in Cowlitz or Clark County.
