WORKFORCE

The Mayor's Workforce Development Board is designed to bridge the gap between jobseekers and employers. To do this, we must address the barriers that job seekers face in Detroit, including poverty, and help ensure every Detroiter seeking employment has access to training and the support necessary to find employment that pays a family-sustaining wage... Through targeted relationship building, industry councils, and strategy partnerships, we are empowering employers with the resources and guidance they need to develop inclusive and successful talent strategies and using their knowledge to drive our investments in Detroit's workforce... Through partnership between the City of Detroit and Detroit Public Schools Community District, Detroit at Work provides industry-standard training in high-wage, high-need occupations for youth and adults at three Career and Technical Centers across the city.
