The purpose of this research was to inform the Duluth Workforce Development Board and the Northeast Workforce Investment Board of opportunities to align workforce development programs and related supportive service assets (service providers) with those they serve (both to expand and identify duplication) and to demonstrate a collaborative workforce system through visual and statistical means. See the report here.

GAC developed a web-based map viewer that allows the Boards and Agency staff to interactively explore the geographic data and profiles of all providers. See the interactive web-based map viewer here.
