WORKFORCE SERVICES

Grant Associates has a vast track record of operating highly effective, large-scale workforce programs across the United States. Our expertise includes operating full-service One-Stops under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), locally funded sector-based initiatives and programs that serve targeted special populations, including those on public assistance, disconnected youth, the long-term unemployed, people with a disability and those who have a criminal justice history. Collectively, our suite of workforce programs and services inspires local residents, supports regional enterprises, develops industry sectors, and realizes a community’s workforce potential.

CUSTOMIZED CAREER PLANNING

Our service delivery model begins with a state-of-the-art orientation, which introduces services available through Grant Associates and its multiple partners.  Immediately following, each customer meets with an Intake Counselor who conducts a quick screening to answer questions and determine next steps. More intensive individualized services begin next with a Career Advisor where together, they design a career development plan that considers the customer’s strengths, challenges, interests and both immediate and long-term employment goals. This plan might include referrals to partners for barrier remediation, language assistance, education or training, or a host of employability workshops contextualized to the community’s high demand sectors.  The end result is the development of an Individual Employment Plan (IEP) in a chosen Career Pathway that includes both employment timing and objectives and training and education for advancement. For customers with barriers, the IEP will include a schedule of services that the customer will receive.
