Mission
Statement
The
Regional Center for Education and Work will
initiate, promote and support programs that foster
cooperation and information sharing among business,
labor, social service and education for healthy
long-term work-force development and economic
improvement in the St. Louis region.
Program
Description
Strengthening
the region's workforce and maintaining a high
quality of life requires many groups to
simultaneously address diverse issues. The Center
is a hub for regional research and planning in
workforce development, employment trends, job
forecasting. It serves as a resource to
education, school counseling, labor force training,
and social service providers. The RCEW takes a
more comprehensive approach to educating and
preparing the region's workforce, developing the
economy and enhancing overall quality of life. We are a unique
collaboration with the potential to become a
national model for other urban regions that face
similar problems such as urban sprawl and
inner-city decline.
