The Board

This organization has the authority to determine how NC Works Career Centers, Workforce Investment Opportunity Act (WIOA) and federal/state Employment and Training funds are used in the Region. The board reviews, monitors and evaluates all programs and services and awards contracts. Staff to the Board monitors the progress of programs, coordinates planning and provides technical assistance to providers and supports the WDB.
