Recipient of a three-year, $5 million grant from the U.S. Dept of Labor’s Employment & Training Administration (DOLETA) under the WIRED initiative, the eight counties of Idaho's south-central Region IV have created a private-public partnership now called the Workforce Development Alliance to support a variety of efforts to increase the numbers and quality of both high-skill jobs and skilled workers to fill them.
