The book explores the challenges youth and adults may face when seeking to improve their job readiness through vocational education, apprenticeships or higher education. Job Training@100% details how county leaders can collaborate to ensure that a countywide system of job training is created from existing and new local training programs, to meet the needs of our most at-risk populations. Our focus is on creating a seamless system of education that aligns with today’s and tomorrow’s local job market.
