The Bay Area Workforce Development Board, Brown County Library, Nicolet Federated Library System, and Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (DWD) held the launch of the third pilot site of a new collaboration between workforce development and public libraries – JobPod - on June 12 at the Marinette County Consolidated Public Library Service Niagara branch library.
As a new partnership, JobPod establishes the public library as a dependable bridge between the job seeker, job search experts, and employers, allowing job seekers to easily access job search resources, connect with a workforce development expert, participate in online employment training, and more. In addition to featuring special remarks, the JobPod launch sparked introductions and conversations among workforce development representatives and local school advocates regarding how DWD can provide more career services to high school students in the area. JobPod’s success can already be seen by the connections it facilitates between local communities and workforce development experts!. The Brown County Library-East Branch was the first JobPod access point for job seekers in the area, which launched in March; and the Algoma Public Library unveiled the second in May.
