SUCCESS STORIES
David DeJesus
The workforce board has partnered with us to provide critical grant funded programs to meet our continuing needs. Training grants such as the workforce training fund, workforce competitive fund, extended care ladder initiative, and nursing career ladder initiative have been of great assistance, so that we can continue to provide critically needed health care services to the residents of Southeastern Massachusetts.”
Michelle Silva
The workforce board acted quickly to assist us in writing a Workforce Training Fund Grant to train our incumbent workers on both lean technical and soft skills and managed the grant for a nominal fee. Our employees have learned to work efficiently, more productively and mindful of reducing waste. Working with them gave us the resources to be able to develop our staff in areas that have made them more efficient and we have been able to do it with approximately the same number of workforce.
