The Chester County Workforce Investment Board (WIB) and the Chester County Economic Development Council (CCEDC) recently sponsored an event to recognize volunteer efforts on the part of Industry Partnership (IP) participants.  

Pictured above, PA State and Local Representatives acknowledge the Chester County WIB and CCEDC for providing the framework and leadership in coordinating essential involvement of industry volunteers, thus enabling successful regional partnerships to flourish in Chester County. 

Volunteers who have donated their time and efforts to bringing together networks of companies in specific industries have helped to extend the training and career-building possibilities for workers in our area, which further strengthens the performance and collaboration of our IP's and improves the energy of our economy.

Through company participation in IP committees, the donation of goods and services, and contributions of time to special events, we express our appreciation to the individuals who volunteer to support the dynamic workforce collaboratives in Chester County.
