How is our WIOA-funded American Job Center network really doing? In this episode, we take a look from the inside out—everything from curb appeal to what it's like to actually work with the system. Joining the conversation are Mark Sanders II, Deputy Commissioner of Workforce Services for the City of Chicago; Irene Sherr, Deputy Bureau Chief for the Cook County Bureau of Economic Development; and Becky Raymond, Executive Director of ScaleLit and Partnership One Stop Operator. Together, they talk about why it's time to "flip the script" and focus on sector-based work with employers, the need for stronger regional connections, and how we can better meet the moment for residents who rely on this network. Finally, the "public" in public workforce network doesn't mean it's free. Customers have pre-paid with their tax dollar so there's a credit on your account. Let's use it!
