The Alameda County Workforce Development Board
The Alameda County Workforce Development Board (ACWDB) is a 27- member employer-led body that provides administrative, fiscal, and policy oversight of Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I programs and services.
WIOA services are available throughout Alameda County to meet the training and employment needs of local area job seekers, including youth and young adults. Business services are also available to help employers meet their goals around talent recruitment and business training needs.
Our vision is to create the best workforce development system that benefits both employers and job seekers.
Our mission is to provide employers and job seekers with universal access to tools, resources, and services that assist them with obtaining employment and business goals.
Our Goal
Our goal is to help job seekers and businesses remain resilient through the COVID-19 pandemic. Learn about services available to job seekers, workers, youth and young adult participants, and businesses.
Our 2020-2021 Year in Review Publication highlights how our local area workforce system collectively has risen above challenges in the last program year - July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021.
