Michigan Works! Association
The mission of the Michigan Works! Association is to provide leadership and services, and promote quality and excellence for the advancement of Michigan’s Workforce Development System and its customers and professionals.
Michigan Works! Association was established in 1987 to foster high-quality employment and training programs serving employers and workers by providing support activities and a forum for information exchange for Michigan’s Workforce Development System.
The Association’s members are the workforce development board chairs, local-elected officials, and Michigan Works! Agencies that cover twenty-five workforce areas. Michigan Works! Association also offers associate membership to organizations with a vested interest in workforce development.
Through the Association’s three pronged approach to organizational development, members are able to:
- access professional development opportunities to ensure high-quality programs and service delivery to all customers;
- receive logistical support as a way to network and share best practices;
- partake in education and promotion of the Michigan Works! System, through special events and keep legislators and others informed on workforce development issues.
