The Waukesha-Ozaukee-Washington (WOW) Workforce Development Board, known locally as WOW Works, is one of Wisconsin’s eleven regional Boards to address local economic workforce issues. The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) empowers the boards to help job seekers access employment, education and training, and support services to succeed in the labor market and to match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy.
WOW Works collaborates with local elected officials, economic development corporations, businesses, and the community to address macroeconomic workforce issues in the 3-county area. It is committed to finding workforce solutions through long-term planning and timely responses to the changing economy. The Board selected Waukesha County to be the fiscal and administrative agent.
