Investments Made to Develop Regional Workforce Data System

Partnership of Local WIBs, GCWN, and United Way to Collect Key Performance Measures
The Greater Cincinnati Workforce Network (GCWN) has made the investment to develop a common data collection system to track, analyze, and report key workforce outcomes across multiple service providers to give us an on-demand, region-wide dashboard of workforce system performance.
The system will aggregate data from the common G*STARS data collection system that is utilized by partners within the region, including the Southwest Ohio Region WIB, Workforce One Investment Board of Southwest Ohio, GCWN Career Pathways, and the United Way's employment agencies. This web-based regional system will aggregate key client-level data, including demographics, service utilization, and outcomes, from multiple workforce agencies in the region.
“Through this regional data system, we hope to understand the collective performance of our region's workforce agencies, create alignment by tracking common key performance measures, identify gaps in service delivery, and build the capacity and competencies of workforce providers to use data to improve services. We look forward to reporting regional data collected through this system beginning next year.”, said Ross Meyer, Executive Director of GCWN.
The Greater Cincinnati Workforce Network is an ambitious regional partnership of philanthropy, government, employers, education, and community organizations that aims to grow the skills of our region's workforce.
