Finding quality, qualified workers is a goal for all businesses in Charlotte.  The Economic Development Office has oversight over the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Workforce Development Board (WDB) which operates local workforce development programs as well as works on workforce issues as identified by the community.

  • The Mayor's Youth Employment Program matches businesses and youth who are looking for career-based summer employment

  • The Youth Job Connection, a partnership between the City, Goodwill and the Workforce Development Board to provide training and part-time jobs for kid
