G*STARS Usage in Ohio Multiplies as Agencies and Partners Move Toward Common Platform

HUDSON, Wis. - Jan. 4, 2010 - Workforce partners in Greater Cincinnati continue to move toward the G*STARS client tracking system that allows for quick data reporting and apples-to-apples measurement of outcomes.
 
The Southwest Ohio Region Workforce Investment Board (SWORWIB), which began using G*STARS in 2006, encouraged the Greater Cincinnati Workforce Network and the United Way of Greater Cincinnati to join the SWORWIB in electronic data collection and reporting to the community through the G*STARS system. Both have, and on Dec. 14-15, 2009, the United Way's client agencies in workforce development were trained in G*STARS at the SuperJobs Center.
 
In addition, Workforce One in Butler, Warren and Clermont Counties, is using G*STARS. “When all agencies are using the system, Greater Cincinnati will be the first region in the country to report outcomes on a common platform, and thus show the true region-wide impact of workforce training and development,” says Sherry Kelley Marshall, President and CEO of the SWORWIB.
 
“About 40 participated in the December training,” reported Susan Harden, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at American Government Services (AGS), who did the training. The United Way Workforce Partners that participated included:
