Meeting Professional Development Needs of Municipalities is a Task for Community Colleges
The people who help our counties, cities, towns and villages to run smoothly have seen rapid change in the ways government units operate over the last decades. But, it might surprise you to know that some employees have had to update their skills without professional development or training. That’s why when Waubonsee Community College’s Workforce Development Division began an inquiry of local civic leader’s greatest needs a few years ago, we discovered the pain points that government organizations faced in the development of their workers. The college was seeking to partner and provide ongoing professional development for municipal workers, we were happy to rise to the challenge.
Committed to Building Communities of Excellence
We all want to live in a community that we can call excellent. We want a community that is responsive and fulfills our need for public services, education, recreation and social interaction. In the Fox Valley we are fortunate to have municipalities that strive for excellence every day. However, reaching the goal of excellence is not easy today, as economic forces over the last 20 years have put unprecedented demands on municipal leaders, staffs, employees, budgets, and infrastructure.
