Delaware County Workforce Development Board
The Delaware County Workforce Development Board (DCWDB) is a business-led Board that works in partnership with County Council. Our goal is to make sure that Delaware County has a dynamic and high-quality workforce. We do this by working with businesses to improve the skill levels of all current and potential workers. Please visit the DCWDB site at: http://www.delcoworks.org/

Leaders from private business, organized labor, education, economic development, human services and community-based organizations, are appointed by County Council to terms of three years on the DCWDB. Much of the work of the DCWDB is accomplished through its Committees some of which include non-DCWDB members.
The DCWDB meets quarterly. These meetings are open to the public.
