Go For the GOLD Strategies • Western 14.3% to 19% • Atlanta Tech, DeKalb Tech are receiving funds for staff to contact all silver and bronze certificate holders and encourage use of GAP training and Be Work Ready Incentive • September Report format shows Certificates Improved from June 1, 2010 – Fulton shows 7 silver moved to GOLD, 3 Bronze moved to Silver, 1 Gold moved to Platinum (staff on board since July) • September Report for DeKalb shows 4 moved from Silver to Gold –(staff on board for 1 month)

  11. Problem: Lack of Private Sector/Unemployed Certificates • Strategy : • Chattahoochee Tech developed and shared notice to be sent to business contacts offering on-site training for employees in leadership skills, etc. if they would assess current workers • Chattahoochee response from employers that they would like “recognition” • Fulton declaring November as Work Ready month with employer activities planned

  12. Other Issues: • Clayton County without an assigned proctor several months • Clayton County Team Leader took job in Forsyth –leadership in question • High Number of Unemployed certificates needed in Clayton • Fulton – No involvement from the City of Atlanta in Work Ready • High number of Public Sector certificates needed in Fulton (Ed Graham has volunteered to assist in discussions with Fire/Police Departments using Athens/Clarke example)
