Description
The Wyoming Workforce Development Council (WWDC) offers these grants to help established Next Generation Sector Partnerships sustain and grow their work. Funded through the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, the grants are awarded through the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services, which serves as fiscal agent for WWDC.
The partnership model brings local business leaders and labor experts together to identify pressing needs in key industries. Industry leaders design responses, while public-sector partners contribute resources and support. Grant-funded work should implement priorities identified by the businesses leading the partnership and help strengthen Wyoming’s industries and workforce.
