WorkSource Atlanta
Share
Provides Atlanta job seekers with resources to attain sustainable employment | Collaborates with business leaders to build a strong workforce.
WorkSource Atlanta offers a myriad of programs and services designed to introduce job readiness and employable skills with a focus on increasing awareness of the types of attitudes, skills and behaviors needed for success in the workforce. Clients gain access to and participate in programs and training necessary to secure employment with a career path for self- sufficiency. Under Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) mandates, the State is subdivided into workforce development areas based on a set of parameters relating to poverty, unemployment, the employed and the labor market demand. Each local area must have a Board of Directors and have a physical location, or a One-Stop Center, where workforce development services are universally accessible. Additionally, each local area must partner with state, community colleges, public schools, community and faith based organizations in the delivery of workforce development services. The local Board designated WorkSource Atlanta to be its One-Stop Center operator, and WorkSource Atlanta is responsible for the management of the day-to-day workforce development activities.
• For job seekers, we offer career counseling, job placement assistance, employment readiness assessments, job search assistance and training as well as labor market information.
• For employers, we offer applicant screening, employee recruitment, labor market and tax credit information. WorkSource Atlanta has provided measurable successes for individuals with minimum and advanced levels of education, as well as those who have never worked or have secured employment but were unable to keep it and those who have worked for years but find themselves searching for work. WorkSource Atlanta partners with federal, state and local governments, public and private colleges, schools, as well as other nonprofits and faith based organizations in the delivery of its innovative programs and services. WorkSource Atlanta is an equal opportunity employer/program. Auxiliary aids and services are available upon request to individuals with disabilities.

What does staff training and development look like during Workforce Development Month?
It looks like workforce professionals coming together to strengthen how we serve our community.
Today’s All-Hands One-Stop Process Working Session focused on equipping ADOLES staff and our partners with the knowledge, tools, procedures, and shared understanding needed to deliver coordinated and effective workforce services.
Workforce development is not only about preparing residents for employment—it is also about developing the professionals who connect people with careers, training, resources, and opportunity.
When we strengthen our staff, we strengthen our services. When we strengthen our services, we strengthen Atlanta’s workforce.
Empowering People. Strengthening Workforce. Building Atlanta.
