Overview

Mission

See schedule o

What it reported doing in 2024

The purpose of this corporation is to conduct workforce development activities that help employers to create, sustain, and retain a viable and safe workforce. Activities of the organization may include, but are not limited to, developing education, training and apprenticeship programs, establishing industry accepted education standards, designing curricula and instruction materials, providing skills training, collaborating on statewide workforce initiatives, and other endeavors that lead to job opportunities within industries that may have vacancies or labor shortages.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 76% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
