Looking back at the best of 2024: Brian Holland of Cary was this year's winner of the Bill Ragland Private Sector Award for Outstanding Achievement in Workforce Development - one of the Governor's #NCWorks Awards of Distinction! Holland, the general counsel of Sectigo, is a longtime member of Capital Area Workforce Development Board and currently serves as board chair. He has taken an active role in representing the board and in advocating for the workforce development system at the local, state and national levels. While serving on the board’s Branding/Outreach committee in 2022, Holland helped develop Capital Area's Business Ambassador Program. The program engages business leaders to create awareness about workforce services, deliver informational content to business audiences, and increase the number of business customers that Capital Area serves. As an attorney, he is also working with the Capital Area Workforce Development Reentry department to provide pro bono services for returning citizens, and to connect with other attorneys. Under his leadership, Capital Area has won two national awards, the National Association of Workforce Boards (NAWB) WIOA Trailblazer Award and the Laurie Moran Partnership Award. Congratulations, Brian, and thanks for your leadership! (Photo courtesy Catawba Valley Community College.)

SUCCESS STORY: Learn how #NCWorks helped the nonprofit organization, Freedom Life Ministries, in 2024. “NCWorks has been an incredible partner in the #reentry work that Freedom Life is doing in McDowell, Avery, and Yancey counties. Through job training, education and placement for clients, NCWorks continues to be a huge resource and partner in helping justice-involved individuals gain much-needed employment as part of their community reintegration and life recovery. Internship opportunities offered through NCWorks have also been a great help in providing clients and potential staff of Freedom Life valuable training and experience. Freedom Life has hired interns that have come through NCWorks programming. The success that Freedom Life has with reentry clients is partly possible because of our partnership with the NCWorks Career Center.” -- Danny Hampton, Executive Director. ....Contact your local NCWorks Career Center to see how you can partner in 2025!

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves! 😀 Thanks for partnering with us, Sylvia. It’s our pleasure to help small businesses. #NCWorks #SmallBiz North Carolina Association of Workforce Development Boards
Tech is my thing | BBA, Credit. Business. Growth | Business Development & Operations Management Professional.
When I was growing my business, I reached a point where I needed help—real help. But the idea of hiring felt overwhelming. Where would I find the right people? How would I even afford it? I thought hiring support was something only big businesses could do, not someone like me trying to piece things together. That’s when I learned about NCWorks. I didn’t know at the time that they could help small businesses like mine with hiring. They didn’t just point me to job boards; they provided tools to create job postings, assistance with finding qualified candidates, and even resources for employee training. What really stood out was how simple they made the process. I didn’t need to have a fancy HR department or a big budget. They showed me how to narrow down candidates who were a perfect fit for my business goals. And guess what? Some of their programs even offer wage assistance for new hires, helping businesses like mine ease into the hiring process without breaking the bank. If you’ve been holding off on hiring because it feels too complicated or expensive, NC Works is a game-changer. You don’t have to have all the answers before you take that step—you just need to start. They’ll meet you where you are and help you grow. 🌟
