The Emerging Workforce Report Data Compendium has compiled an inventory of youth services providers as well as extensive information about factors facing our workforce of the future.

Youth Services Inventory Report
An inventory of youth service providers is constructed to provide a comprehensive overview of workforce development related services available to youth throughout the CRWIB service area. The inventory provides the CRWIB Youth Council with data than can help to better understand what services are available and where there are significant gaps. The inventory should also serve as a tool for staff to identify potential service referral options.

Want to know the best way to earn a lot of money?

Stay in school!

The more you learn ... the more you earn. If you get a 2-year Associate Degree, you can expect to make double what a 9th grade dropout will make. Get your 4-year Bachelor Degree, and you will make nearly three times more. And that is not just for one year, but for the rest of your life. Over a 30-year long career, the difference between what you will earn with a bachelors degree or dropping out in 9th grade can be more than $1 million.
