Book Description
In each of the four communities we visited, consortia were formed in response to individual community economic and workforce development needs. In some locations, these needs were identified and examined through formal studies on the community's workforce conditions and future economic challenges. For example, in Charlotte, North Carolina, business leaders working with other community organizations sought to identify strategies to continue the business growth of the area while exploring potential weaknesses in the local economy. In these communities, local public and private organizations joined together to address existing and emerging workforce development Issues. Consortia varied somewhat in membership and activities according to their area's needs and resources but were characterized by a strong business focus. Consortia were typically lead by one or two key organizations, such as the chamber of commerce and community college. Other consortia members often included local school districts, workforce investment boards, business and trade associations, and unions. In three of the four locations we visited, officials from consortia organizations had established intermediary entities to help link all consortium organizations and to act as a broker or provider of services.

A Way Forward
Author: Daniel P. Gitterman
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 080787289X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
In the last half century, North Carolina and the South have experienced rapid economic growth. Much of the best analysis of this progress came from two North Carolina-based research organizations: the Southern Growth Policies Board and MDC (originally a project of the North Carolina Fund). Their 1986 reports are two of the best assessments of the achievements and limitations of the so-called Sunbelt boom. On November 17, 2011, the Global Research Institute at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Institute for Emerging Issues at North Carolina State University co-hosted a public discussion to build on these classic reports and to offer fresh analyses of the current challenges facing the region. A Way Forward, which issued from this effort, features more than thirty original essays containing recommendations and strategies for building and sustaining a globally competitive South.
