The Western Virginia Workforce Centers provide workers age 16 and older with services ranging
from career counseling to education and training to language skills. The Centers unify services
from state agencies and private partners into a one-stop center where customers are linked to

The Workforce Centers are part of the Western Virginia Workforce Development Network which is

closely tied to regional economic growth trends. It is a market-driven approach. The WDB works
in partnership with the Chief Local Elected Officials (CLEOs) from the eight local jurisdictions
