CHAPTER 4 - PARTNERSHIP NETWORK

GuilfordWorks believes that high-quality workforce partnerships are among the most fundamentally sound strat egies for helping job seekers succeed in today’s competitive economy while at the same time improving the effectiveness of industry employers. Successful partnerships combine an entrepreneurial approach to establishing key stakeholders, organizational development, and persistent attention to the needs of our two main customers: employers and job seekers. This section is designed to assist the workforce partnerships they support. The Partnership Network is a network of organizations that mobilizes the community resources to create the conditions for change and solve multifaceted challenges of our communities. Below is a list of partner organizations currently in partnership with GuilfordWorks.
