Policies

As an effective service through WorkSource Oregon, NOW invests federal and state funds into the on-the-job training (OJT) program. OJT training provides a service to both job seekers and employers. It provides individuals an opportunity to learn new skills while on the job while offering employers reimbursement for some of the training costs.

Local Workforce Plan

We developed our first Local Workforce Plan in the Spring of 2015, following requirements set forth by the State of Oregon.
