Development Partnerships

Employer's Resource Referral Group (ERRG)
The labor shortage is increasing this demand for a cataloguing of workforce support services - especially in industries that are tapping the emerging and immigrant workforce. iSeek Solutions is partnering with the Twin Cities Economic Development Group and The United Way to design and deploy a "one-stop" web site where users can search for and access information to grow their businesses through locating and retaining workers. The goal is a database of workforce support services that can be accessed swiftly and seamlessly through the Internet. Through an interface on ISEEK, employers and the public will be able to access metro and statewide information on:

• Support services
• Counseling
• Housing
• Transportation
• Workplace training
• And more!
  

This new resource will be a seamless, easily accessible, electronic solution that is fully integrated with other employment and training resources that are currently part of ISEEK.
