The Workforce Development Division compiles an annual report on workforce initiatives, including training, recruitment, retention, and automation, as required by North Dakota Century Code (NDCC 54-60-26). This ensures efficient program delivery by aligning state agencies and private industry efforts, reducing overlap, and coordinating workforce initiatives in education, training, automation, and support for underrepresented workers.

This dashboard allows people to search workforce related activities based on the population served, implementation of the activity (grants, direct services, etc.), State Agency, and workforce themes. It is our hope that it will be used to increase utilization of existing programs, leverage partnerships, and prevent duplication.
