The
Northwest Tennessee Workforce Board needs technical assistance
in determining the most effective method(s) of packaging our
services to local business in the service area. Presently
name recognition is a challenge for most LWIAs in the state
since we are co-located in some areas in the Career Centers.
The transition from the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA)
has been difficult for some staff members. There is a need
for internal marketing and staff development. Help is needed
in determining a marketing budget and staff, also the function
itself.
