Workforce Services for Individuals

North Carolina offers its citizens assistance to secure quality jobs and satisfying careers.

 

The state’s JobLink Career Center system was created in response to the national Workforce Investment Act (WIA) which provides funds to address the employment and training needs of adults, dislocated workers and youth.

 

This comprehensive workforce investment system provides job seekers, on a non-discriminatory basis, access to the information and services they need to manage their career and helps businesses find skilled, motivated workers. This system of job training activities and services are offered through a network of 24 local Workforce Development Boards, serving all 100 counties in the state through the JobLink Career Center system.

 

The JobLink Career Centers are user friendly facilities located in most counties in North Carolina which provide job seekers, training seekers and employers access to career training and job placement services and also serve as the connection between employers and qualified workers.

 

In a JobLink Career Center, customers come first. By offering a wide range of service options, from self-service to full-service, the JobLink Career Centers offer comprehensive training and employment services to the community, all under one roof.

 

If you are an adult, age 18 years or older, you can use the JobLink Career Centers to search for employment, get help on a resume, enhance your education and job skills, or look for career and education choice information.

 

If your company is closing you may qualify for assistance as a dislocated worker by contacting your local JobLink Career Centers .  A dislocated worker can also use the JobLink Career Centers to search for employment, get help on a resume, enhance your education and job skills, or look for career and education choice information.
